Hi

I am trying to trace what happened to my half sister, whom I have never had contact with,

This is bordering on living people, so I will omit some information, so if anyone gets any results could you PM me.

Lillian May Jenkins, b 29 Jan 1915, Birmingham, Warwickshire, died somewhere in Australia some years ago.

Lillian married twice the first to, Sidney Lambeth Millichamp in 1934, Sidney d 1995, they parted and she went on to marry a Mr Humphrey they emigrated in 1951, on the  ship Ranchi to Sydney Australia

Thank you

Here's one possibility - a tribute http://tributes.heraldsun.com.au/archivenotice/2705227/view

But from electoral rolls there are several people of that name

Thank you Ros, I don't recognise the children's names, I know that she had five children, 4 of them were home children, and I believe she emigrated to Australia, to find them, and I believe she did and they were all reunited

Thank you for your trouble

They were married in 1948 and appear on the Australian Electoral Roll in Victoria from 1949 with John's occupation soldier.

They were both created at Springvale Botanical Cemetery.

Hi

I am not sure if Lillian stayed with Mr Humphrey, my niece who unfortunately passed away last year mention the name Bostock  so I am not sure if this relevant or not
