I was given your name by Yaki Brind, AKA Clive who has a brother Stephen who contact me recently. I had spoken to him (Stephen) years back briefly as we were in the same business (Film). I am one of 3 children, Sherry ( Birth Name Shirley), William but he uses his middle name Stuart, and me, Stephen, the only one its seems who doesn't have a problem with his name . I beginning to think it is a family trait. My Father was married before and I have a half sister Sherry. His name was Joesph Walter Edward Brind, born in Plumstead, London. One of 3 children, his siblings were sisters but they died when still in there teens. He was an engineer and senior Civil Servant working for the Ministry of Defence. He was given the job as Master (I think it was called that) of the Royal Mint, the same position that Sir Issac Newton held. But unfortunately he died young (58) before he started the job. His father was Joseph Brind, as well, who was in the Royal Navy as a Gunner posted in Malta for a time I believe. I heard from an other Brind some years back who was from Essex, but we were not related as far as he could tell. He he did send me some birth/death certificates that I still have somewhere. I have 3 children 1 from my first wife (Jean Weller, maiden name) She died in 2004 in New Zealand. She had gone to stay with my daughter Samantha Amy Sally Brind (35) I have 2 Sons: Atticus Joseph (19), and Rowan Stuart (14). My half sister has one daughter, Kathryn, who has 3 daughters. My Brother William Stuart lives in London. He married a woman from Gambia and they have 2 children of there own children I believe and adopted 3 others. You will probably find this all tedious but just in case I thought I would let you know. I hope are well and wish you well. Sincerely Stephen Brind
