Hello Angio

Ingy was my Mother's first cousin. Her Father, Johnny Othea Boswell was her aunt Rhodie's sister.
We have a photo of Ingy and a brother who might have been called Edicar after his dad.

Lavina Boswell was my great grandad. I have a photo of him too.
He was named after his grandad, Salvaino.
Eric Trudgill has produced a pamphlet on the whole family.

Mom told us that when duckering. I.e. Fortune telling, Rhoda would ask that the client bring in a white shirt for luck.
It was because Uncle Edicar liked a white shirt.

The family also used the names boss, and Sherrif.

Hope this helps.

Vince

Your friend can also access her mother's adoption file, the law was changed to allow that a few years ago.

Speak to the adoption services team of her local council in the first instance for advice on the process.

thank you so much for that she wasnt aware of that ... amazing news x

If you knew the birth name you can get a copy of the original birth certificate, however while it will have adopted written on it, it doesn't have the name of the adoptive parents

Thats the problem we dont know the original name thanks i will keep trying other sources it is my friends mother who was adopted

thanks
