Does anyone know of a Sarah Keegan (maiden name) or her family? If Sarah is still alive she will be in her 80s.

As a young woman Sarah left Ireland to work as a parlourmaid in Poole, on the south coast of England, where she had a baby boy in April 1942. She named him Thomas Joseph Keegan and put him up for adoption, then probably returned to Ireland. Maybe her family never knew about the baby.

That baby is now 64, with three happy grown-up children who would love to find out about the "lost" side of their family. They understand totally that attitudes were very different then, and they feel nothing but love towards Sarah.

If you know of any Irish-born Sarah Keegan who would be in her 80s now, please do get in touch (or ask her family to contact me) and we can discuss how to approach this sensitively to find out whether she is the one. So much time has passed already; we don't want to lose any more.
