Information wanted

Posted - June 06, 2002
Raymond Saunders, who lives in Hampshire, has asked for information about his birth mother. “On her birth certificate dated April 24 1933 she was named Margaret Jones, and her mother was Dorothy Martha Jones. Dorothy married Arthur Jesse Perks and Margaret became known as Ellen Perks. The family lived firstly at 6 Albert Street and then at 15 Albert Street. “I have traced Ellen to Scotland where she died on November 26 1996 leaving four children. “I would like to get in contact with anyone that knew her at school, in her late teens or early twenties before she left Oxford. She was not heard from by her large family who she left behind or by me who she left in a Mother and Baby home in St Aldates. Phone: 01980 842287.
