Post by: emanon on Sunday 03 January 21 15:27 GMT (UK)

anyway here goes

my mas name was Patricia Nestor Heath, she was born in Australia her birth certificate says Alfred Sydney heath and Rita Agnes Le Conway as parents, she was taken from them and placed in a children's home in geelong,

other side is Halpin my grandfather died few years ago his name was Cyril Justin Halpin, his fathers name was Lawrence Robert halpin, I know Halpin side  is from Louth but not much else,

I'm sure everyone is pleased to have been able to help.

Did you need the name of the HALPIN man Patricia Nestor was at the same address with up to 1981?
And from 1963?

I am not sure if he has died. Someone might know or be able to have a look.
