Her father was a Lt. Commander in the Royal Navy. I am helping a chap in South Africa find his only living relative, but she could be anywhere I cannot find a marriage for her on Ancestry UK or a death for either of her parents, they married in 1936. xxhugxx

No mention of them on that wonderful website, I am wondering if they settled in South Africa and were only resident in Malta for a while. Oh well thank you but the mystery continues. xxhugxx
