Hi Kiwirose.
My Dad was adopted in 1922 and grew up believing his parents had died in an automobile accident.
While doing his family tree (he died in 1971) we found he has his original birth certificate, looked up his biological parents marriage and death certs, shock horror his parents had lived until the 1940s. We then found he had three siblings and finally found an address for one of his brothers.
  I wrote to him and explained what had happened and included dads a copy of Dads bc, and said to them that it must be an awful shock. I also said that I would understand if they wanted no contact and would honour their wishes. About a month later I got a letter and was elated that it was from them, we have now met up both in Scotland and here in England.
Write that letter, dont leave it too long as you never know whats around the corner, but also give them time to digest what you write.

Sorry its so long winded, but it shows we were in the same circumstance as you. If it were me iI would definately do it.

regards
Anner

Thanks Becky and Bee,
Thanks for your input I will look up on google. The only reason I was asking is that the usual residence was Beedhams Court. But couldnt work out what was at Huntingdon Road, and wondered if it was a hospital or something similar.

Hi Justin,
it was with a stroke of luck to find that last bit of info. I spoke to Hymans grand daughter and she had a look though her things that she had been left, lo and behold she found Hymans naturalisation documents and it stated where he was born.
 Now I have just to break into the next generation. Going to be really hard I can tell.  .

Hi Justin,
Where do you find info like that, it was amazing to see what the pale was.

I do have the info about Hyman and Millies deaths and from what I have been told, Millie couldnt live without Hyman and basically died from a broken heart. True romance. I also now have Hymans parents, Hilleil and Esther. (not sure if thats the right way to spell Hilleil), so off to look for them. Again from what I have been told Hymans parents then went on to Isreal with their other son and daughter. So now going to try to find out about them as well.
Millies father was Abraham, and I am going to look for his death in England as they came over as a family.

Anne.
