Lynnette Ellis

[Jamjar]

If I am reading the information correctly, Lynette was born in 1942 and her father's divorce was in 1943, so the woman in the divorce document is likely to be the m7other of Lynette.

I checked Christchurch cemeteries - as divorce document said Christchurch - and there is one person with the two same christian names as the possible mother. Different surname so possibly a remarriage, if it is her.
