Hi,
I would like some help or at least any advice on finding my father Paul Robinson. He was 18 in Febrary in 1988, and lived in Carlisle, though I'm not certain if he was born there, though must have been around the area.

Unfortunately I have no other information, and due to not knowing his mothers maiden name, searching the basic birth records myself is no use for the 1969/1970 period!

Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated, as I'm quite new at this =)

Thank you

Carly

Try 192.com. It's a pay by credit site but it'll help your search.

I've sent a message to a few people regarding any tree connections but no response as of yet. Is the 192 site a reliable site for searching, do many people use it? I don't want to lose my money to a website that ends up giving you the information you already had!

Thank you =)

I'll get better at this...

PS: Thank you so much Susan, I'll follow this up!

Carly, 192.com searches Electoral Rolls and phone books. Its free to look but pay if you want more info.
