Hello Ann
Thank you so much for your reply, it was greatly appreciated. I understand how hard it is
to try and find any information on these matters as it was generally kept between families
or if lucky enough in the parish records. I understood that the parish records were stored
in a place that went up in flames and alot of the records were destroyed, hence why I
asked you if you knew of a place that still had some records of sorts. My grandmother was
adopted into a Cairns family as I stated but due to them not being listed on either her
birth or Marriage certificate I have come to a major halt. The only way I knew of her
adoptive name was that it was listed on her marriage certificate and other than this
little bit of information she had mentioned that she was adopted prior to her passing away
in 2002 but no names were ever mentioned to us unfortunately.
Good luck with your searching also Ann and I hope that you find something soon.
Kind Regards
Lisa
