My mothers family, Rixon
My mother Mary Rixon came from a family of three, most probably London / Kent area. Born early 1920s. Her mother died when she was very young, and the family was broken up. I have no idea what happened to the father, my grandfather.
The sisters name was Ivy, a few years older than my mother, and they actually managed to stay together, as foster children. She married a Dracott late in life, and died around 12-15 years ago in Seaford UK. No children.
The mystery person I would very much like to find out about is the brother,my uncle, John Rixon who was never heard of after the family was broken up. He was almost certainly fostered out also, but I do not know if he kept the family name, or assumed the foster parents name.
My mother married a Leonard Cole shortly after the war. They had two boys, myself and brother Andrew.I was born in 1947, Andrew 1950. In 1953 the family moved to New Zealand, although Andrew now lives in Australia.
