hi all , wondering if anybody out there can help ?

my dad (Peter Phillips) only recently found out that his birth mother died when he was 14months old, his dad (Harold) remarried soon after and didnt tell him about his mother.

all photos of her were destroyed and we cant find a picture anywhere.

before he shuttles off this mortal coil , i'd like to try and get a photo of her young or otherwise.

she was called Mary Jane Phillips(nee Grayson) , her father was Israel Grayson - an unusual name ! , her mother was Betsy Grayson (nee Anson).

they lived at darnall and attercliffe .

she was born 3/8/20 and died of tb on 27/11/44.

if anybody has traced their roots ( which seems popular these days ), and have a link back to Israel Grayson or may possibly have a photo of Mary Jane , please get in touch .

thank you for your time and consideration in reading this .

cheers . lee

I was at Maltby Street School, 1947 to 1957. There was a Barbara Grayson there, either in my class or just above. I think she lived on Clay street, just about opposite the "other" entrance to the school.

Hi, my grandad would love to chat, unfortunately I cannot direct message you on here as I haven't made enough posts yet, if you would like to message me with some contact details I will pass them on to my grandad

Your dad's mum Mary Jane was my mum Betsy Grayson's sister and she looked after your dad as a baby after his mum died. I remember seeing your dad when he worked in a butchers near Castle Market.
