I am trying to trace a half sister I never met- believed to be Lilian daughter of Lilian Dorothy nee WILLS and Herbert John HEWITT (my father) who was also called Buddy and Jack. Lilian would now be in her 80s and may have been born in Kent or perhaps Norwich- Unfortunately I believe my father and her Mum married very young and the relationship broke down. Anyone knowing of Lilian or her family I would love to hear from. At the same time I am trying to find details of my father , who passed away in 1988, aged 83 years. I never met and heard of any of his family ie parents and would love to find out any information as to his background.
My father was born in Norfolk in 1905 as Herbert John HEWITT Hazell, he dropped the surname of Hazell in early life. His father is given as Herbert John Hewitt on marriage certificates, but none on birth certificate. His mother was a Hazell and unmarried. Have reason to believe his father died during WW1. Mother remarried to Flowerday and had more children.
Any info gratefully received
