Hi Tina, Thanks for getting back to me on both my Posts. I might have a look at Google for Peter J. Murphy (my dad, allegedly!!).
Regards the Davis family:- yes, a common enough name but one of my uncles was named Eric too. How weird is that? Now, if your grandfather had Branston as his middle name, or any of your Davis family (male or female) then there is a very good chance we are related. I've been doing Ancestry for some years now and have found all the Davis family including a large family in Leicester. They are cousins but they know nothing about my side of the family, which is why I'm hoping someone will have information on the Leicester Forum.
Have you heard anything from your Private Detective? I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you.
Best wishes, Janet
