Hi All, message from Irene if any one can help….

My name is Irene Notley - I was at Bromborough sec for 12 months in 1964 . I’m looking to contact my school friend Rosie Williams

Hi all, I'm looking for June Edwards. Sister was Joan and brother Jimmy, who went to Acre Lane around 1965. My mother in law and her 2 sisters (Geraldine, Margeret, and Annie Oshea) came from Ireland and stayed with this lovely family, so just want to get back in touch.

SEARCHING FOR JULIE DODD - NEW FERRY......
As many here may know I posted several times earlier this year searching for my birth mother Brenda Kathleen Dodd who lived at Shorefields House in New Ferry. I was adopted at birth but research revealed that Brenda was my birth mother. Sadly my research also revealed that Brenda died in 1997 aged just 51 and was laid to rest locally.
However with extra information I received via this group I found out that Brenda had a daughter called Julie around 18 months after my birth. This daughter is my younger sister that I never knew I had until now.
I applied for a copy of Julie's birth certificate and last week I received it. Both my birth certificate and Julie's match perfectly with the same birth mother and same home address noted on both certificates as well as occupation of mother also the same. So I definitely have a younger sister and I'm hoping that someone knows where she may be today.
Julie was born on 25th November 1965 at Heswall maternity home on Oldfield Way, Heswall. She grew up at Shorefields House New Ferry with Brenda. Julie attended Bromborough secondary school between 1976 - 1982 travelling by bus each day.
It is thought Julie may have left the area after leaving school but this cannot be confirmed. Julie gave birth to her first child in December 1997 just a month after Brenda died but I know she visited New Ferry at that time. Julie may well have married thus my struggle to find her under the surname of Dodd.
If anyone has any clue as to the whereabouts of Julie today or you know Julie from school etc do please let me know. I have a couple of photos of Julie from her school days kindly sent to me by a kind lady in this group who knew her at the secondary school.
Any help or information will be greatly appreciated.
Best wishes
James
