Hi Pat! This is very exciting! Unfortunately it sounds as though my grandmother was as discreet about her real family as Beatrice. I only found out her birth surname this week. She was adopted by a couple at the age of 8  who had no children and she was brought up as a Redmile. I have only just started looking into her family. I do know that on her birth certificate Edith is called Jonson but on her adoption document she is back to Trussell. I wonder whether she wasn't allowed to remarry if she had been previously married?
My grandmother was a secretary and then married my grandfather Eric Morrison who was an engineer. They had one daughter Margaret who was a radiographer wh married my father John Todd a haematologist. They had my sister Amanda a musician and me Sarah a teacher. Amanda has two daughters Megan and Helena and I have a 9 year old daughter Grace.
We'd love to know about your family. Beatrice sounds wonderful!
