Robert died when my dad was 15 and Sophia died approx 1970 in Lewisham London. My dad also had a sister not sure if she was adopted or what but her name was Isabelle O'Farrell but my dad lost touch with her many years ago. He has managed to track down his half brothers from his birth mother approx 5 years ago but sadly his birth mother had passed away about 4 years before hand. If anyone could help me with any information on either of these familys or can tell me where i can look for this information i would be very gratefull, although i have tried many sites without any success.
I would also love to hear from anyone who has any connections with the Conn family from this area and just to see how much of my Dad's roots we can uncover for him.
Many thanks Dee
