Wow. After 6 yrs hard labour I have found the name of the person that started my family tree research. My Mum and her twin were illegitimate and their fathers name was never placed on their birth certs. Their mother never told them his name and as far as we knew nobody knew who he was. After 6 yrs researching the rest of the family tree I happened upon a posting regarding the maternity home where my mum was born and who had the records. This morning, in the post I recieved my mums file and there on the admission sheet was my grand fathers name C P Officer Robert Rains. So now obviously I am going to attempt to find out who he was. Can any one help me out regards locating files for sailors based in Gosport, Hampshire in 1945 (I know there was a lot of them!!!!!!). Heres hoping,
