Our colleague, Andrew Behan, informs us that she was born on 30 August 1958, the elder daughter of Kazimierz Migdal and Franciszka Leduchowicz. Her sister, Barbara Migdal was born in 1960.

Electoral registers from 2003 to 2006 show her listed at Grey Lodge, Old Bix Road, Bix, Henley-on-Thames, RG9 6BY.
