Would love to hear from anyone.
Could you provide any background information on this E. Martin to see if she may be the Mother we are tracing? Many thanks for your help.

I know it is a long shot as my dad is 76 now but it would be amazing if we could get some answers for him.
He has been back and visited the home as an adult and remembered rooms and the staircase, unfortunately the staff that are there now have no record of him ever being there, but he definitely was there.
I am trying to trace where my Great-Granddad is originally from. His name is George Edward Cooper, born 1896 and he was adopted from a children's home in Portsmouth by a Mr & Mrs Cooper. Would anyone know the best place to look? Should I look at libraries, Councils, or any other resources? We think he was originally born in Scotland, though that's not confirmed.
My email is sea.cooper@hotmail.com
Any help very much appreciated! Many thanks - Sarah

I worked at Woodlawns in the mid 1970's.
The housemaster was Mr McKee.
The site was redeveloped and there is no trace now but the local authority may have some records.
Look forward to hearing anything.
Thanks Sue
