Daughter told her Gran , hubby`s Mum and she`s pleased , don`t know what hubby would think as he never met his father. It`s all a bit of a puzzle as to how cousin got daughter`s name .
I tried to find half brother years ago and found a cousin of theirs , she said he didn`t want to meet hubby but don`t think she actually spoke to him .Ros xx

I'm glad you have some leads to follow!

I have been getting messages from Bebo fro complete strangers, one even called me 'Mum'. I have to say all three of my children live at home and there are no skeletons in my closets, so I can only think someone's made a mistake.

It is the correct person and we`ve been exchanging messages on Bebo ,.I put a photo of hubby on and she said it`s her grandpa`s double(hubby`s father who died 11 years ago , he never met him).My hubby doesn`t know we`ve been in touch and I don`t think he would bother but he said years ago -wish I had met my Dad , her father isn`t sure if he wants to meet him--difficult one , as they are both over 50.

Think it`s her father`s half brother`s daughter , but where she got her name from we don`t know , the girl said her father`s half brother is *******which is correct and we live in an area of Glasgow , which she got wrong but it`s close by. Just going to look her up on Bebo, Ros xx

saying someone thinks she is her cousin. My hubby has a half brother he has never met , so don`t know where she got my daughter`s name from -spelled exactly right. I told her to reply asking if her father`s name was *****, she said it was and said she had 2 sisters which is the info I have --we will await events.
