A mum walked by a gravesite "several times" before she found out it belonged to her family.
Barbara Woods-Spiers, originally from West Derby but who now lives in Prescot, has been trying to find the "missing link" to her family for years. The 55-year-old has been searching for her mum's baby brother John Devitt who died on January 10, 1931.
Baby John was born premature and, after suffering convulsions, died at just days old. Barbara's grandad Walter told his grieving wife Doris that John was buried in the arms of a mum who died in childbirth to "support his wife in a difficult time".
