Along with our routine searches, we have discovered that John Clement Minto may have fathered as many as another seven children after his relationship/marriage with Elsie Affleck ended. This is astonishing news and leaves the possibility that there are seven more half-brothers and sisters to find. It's mind blowing and I just can't take it in.

FANTASTIC NEWS
We have finally made contact with Irene Yvonne. She has received our letter and phoned us today (she lives in Derbyshire), so there's gonna be another reunion on Saturday. She's coming up to stay with us for a night. Like some of the others, she was nervous about getting in touch; I suppose it must be like taking a leap in the dark. This is all that Doreen has ever wanted - just to come together with all her brothers and sisters. So, once we have traced George, that is all of the fostered children and we have the much harder task of finding John Derek, who is the only one to be actually formally adopted. Still, we have come this far and we are not going to give in at the final hurdle, however tough it may be. With luck, George will have his letter now and, hopefully, he will get in touch soon. At this point, I would like to thank all of you who have helped us (or tried to) and just say "Watch this space....."
