Pleased you've got the birth reg now, I never checked after it was said the only one was the one in Q2 1961 mmn Foy

The only way you'll know if that marriage is him is to order the cert and see if his father is who you expect it to be.

I also think that this marriage

Joseph D Gannon marrying a Joyce M Randles, Stockport, 10a 1481, 3Q 1956

Is a good marriage and possibly his first mariage?

do not no i will just have to try and ask around but nobody will talk i no my husband does not no anything thanks

So now we know her name was Pickersgill when they should have married.... it looks to me like they never did marry, but carried on as such, all subsequent children given their fathers name etc. I'm looking for a previous marrige for him but drawing a blank so far.... i wonder if it was indeed him previously married, could Lesley be the result of an affair? did Joseph leave his wife and live with Audrey hence why she was not given her fathers name ?

Thank you so much why did i not think of that so Joseph Gannon might not be her father

FOUND IT!!!

Lesley Pickersgill.... (mothers maiden name) Pickersgill, 1Q 1962, Stockport, 10a 812

Looks like her mother was unmarried, in which case her father is unlikely to be on the cert.

Why i didn't think to go there first i don't know!

if she was adopted, yes i believe she would have had 2 birth certs. Sadly the death cert will only give you the data the informant had.

Without knowing her birth name you are going to have a job finding her. It might be worth dropping a message on the adoption thread, explain you believe you have a relative who *may* have been adopted by the stepfather, and ask how you would find out.

We still need to find his original marriage, and his marriage to Audrey. I believe Audrey probably wasn't a Pickersgill when she married Joseph, she may well have used her maiden name to register her children tho...

I'll take another look at all the Joseph Gannon marriages and see if i can see an Audrey.

ok thanks how can i find out if she is adopted or do i kneed her death cert for that information and all so if she is adopted will she have two birth cert

The death cert will only have on it the data the informant knows as fact. So sadly if they have their facts wrong.... so in turn will the cert be wrong.

It is possible she took on her step fathers name or that he adopted her as his own when he married Audrey....

thats the one i have got but i can not find her birth cert i wounder if her surname is something else or would she have had to be buired in her real name or can you be buired in any name that the person wants you to be?

she did not sadley she was mently handicaped she was in her 40 when she died so i have been led to belive

......when did lesley get married?

Thanks for getting back to me how interesting do not no can you find her death cert she was suppose to of died in Feb 2005 thats where me and my husband got her date of birth but do you think there could be a nother death date for her

All the other children to this couple are born when they should have been, where they should have been and to the parents you expected....

All except Lesley.... now is Lesley their real first name?

o i did not know that i have only been married once thankyou

If your husband hasn't got a copy of his birth cert it may be worth getting it.

My mother in law was married twice and my husbands birt cert gives her maiden name + her previous married name.

Christine

No sorry but one of the kids Paul Gannon well he is my husband and as far is he is concernd all his brothers and sisters are from the same parents, well he he is begining to think that lesley might not be but does not know who she belongs to

Do you have any of the other children's birth certs as If she had been married before they may show a previous married name.
