Hi folks, hoping to trace not only my heritage but the parents of my grandmother who was adopted in 1936. Hitting many a brick wall sadly

Welcome to the forum @Joby

As this section is just for introductions, I have moved the query itself to a thread of its own, which can be found here. That way, any answers/suggestions will not get mixed up with welcome messages.

Good luck with your research!
