Maureen was apparently "adopted", possibly informally, by one of her mother's sisters.

Thanks AG
The other thread - linked through the one you highlighted - was the one to which I had posted.

The poster hasn't returned to ANY of them

Shirley pointed that out at 17:55, Malyon.
We know that is the correct birth.

The poster is looking for someone born in 1945 and almost certainly adopted

If she was adopted, we won't be able to find any records for her, apart from her birth.

If you are a blood relative, add your name to the Adoption Contact Register.
If by chance Maureen has also registered with them, or does so in future, you may be put in touch with each other. No guarantees, of course.
