Find Living Relatives

Hello,
I am looking for any living children/grandchildren of Leonard Stace, who was born in Essex in 1924. As far as I can find he had 3 children (Christine b 1948, Romford, Heather b 1951, Romford and Melvin b 1947, Romford). I found a marriage for Christine so she became Christine Browning in 1964, I believe, and Heather became Heather Winsley in 1967, I believe. I think there may be other children, but I can't find them. These would all be my mum's cousins and we would really like to find them.
Many thanks

Use freebmd to search for births..................if you haven't already done so

Also, check the Electoral Roll

LEONARD is in at least THREE trees on GR

Heather is in ONE, as is Melvin

Try making contact..................

There was also a Stace/Johnson marriage in Essex in 1963, so any births after that date would have to be verified with certificates

There are two Winsley/Stace births on freebmd, but until there is certainty about WHICH Heather married Winsley, there is little point in pursuing them

Heather's alleged death in 2020 ( as per info above) was not registered in England/Wales, unless under a surname other than Winsley

STACE, MELVIN LEONARD 1947
GRO Reference: DOR Q3/2001 in SHEFFIELD (0481C) Reg C91A Entry Number 259

No marriage on freebmd.....................no record of Probate

No-one else listed at the same address on 2002 ER

There were TWO Heather J Stace births in Essex in 1951, so unless you have the cert, not sure that you can be certain which of them married Winsley
