@independent_ie @BuckoConor...a long thread .. for the record...point of Info. 1946 no legal adoption papers available for Mixed Race Irish ...neither for biological mother to sign ...nor for sisters or nuns to forge etc.
Christine received her 1946 files from Religious Sisters of Charity in 2011. Both documents from 1946 and 2011 indicated that legal adoption of mixed race children not an option...
Also point of info... adoption not legally possible in 1950s for any child "commited via children's court" (Dublin Castle) to any "orphanage" or "industrial school" or "convent" etc.
