Hello - I am trying to help my mom locate an old friend. She last saw this women in 1955 in England - the year my mom was married - My mom saw her sister two years ago and asked if she had seen her and was told she moved back to Scotland. Her maiden name then was Barbara Morrison. If anyone has any leads or locations I may start my search please email me. My mom and dad will be celebrating their 50th anniversary soon and it would be a great surprise!
Thank You.
