THE GAZETTE have been requested for help in searching for ‘Janet and Roger’ - a couple who live in Salcombe.

Janet’s mum is called Betty Smith and possibly lives in the Mendip area.

The request is on behalf of Keith Dunn, an old American friend of Betty and her late husband Bob’s. Keith hasn’t got her contact address, but receives Christmas cards from Betty every year with bits of news, but no return address.

The only clues Keith has are that her daughter Janet and husband Roger live in Salcombe, and that Betty’s Christmas cards have the ‘Bristol, Bath, Taunton’ postmark on them.

Keith has previously contacted three Mendip newspapers, but is yet to receive a reply from any of them. He also previously wrote to all the Smiths in the Taunton area at Christmas 2014, but had no luck tracking Betty down.

If you have any information to help reunite these old friends, please contact the Gazette on 01548 856353.
