Notes

left wife Cissie and disappeared
I am impressed that a great number of my newly found family still reside in and around the same area.
Myself, I was moved down to the coast in Kent and lived there for most of my life, before going to sea and now I live in Newcastle.
I have never felt like I had any real roots until recently. [14]
