Many thanks for the information. Also for the photogrph link.

I must say that after seeing the photograph my heart sank somewhat. I had imagined the address to be a house where Estelle and the boy with her went to live. It seems that looking at the photograph they went there to receive the address of their final destination as there are many solicitors, land agents etc in the building.

Anyway, many thanks for all your help - Patricia

Good morning

Thank you for your response.

Unfortunately not. I spoke to my brother who received the letter and, who is now 84, but he coud not recollect anything about it. I never saw the letter it was just my Mum telling me about it at the time.

Regards - Patricia

Thank you for the informaton. I should imagine that it is her. Is this a job appointment?

I have tried the child migrant trust but, as yet, they have found no more than I have.
