So you want his father's place of birth, not his?? When and where was Thomas born? What is his fathers name?

You will need to find his birth reference in the right area. From that reference you can order a certificate to obtain details of the birth, ie. date of birth,place ( actual address or just village / town depending on your luck), parents, the father's occupation, mother's name and maiden name, name of informant and their relationship to the child.

It would tell you his place of birth, the exact date of birth, his mothers name and fathers if known, plus occupation. It also shows the registrar. You can't order it without knowing what year it happened though.... what's his name? and I'll have a look for the reference for you.

From the GRO website: What details will I see? Short certificate Details contained on a short version of a birth certificate include the baby's names and surname, sex, date of birth and the name of the registration district and sub-district where the birth took place. Full certificate Details contained on a full birth certificate include all the above plus exact place of birth father's name (if given at time of registration), place of birth and occupation mother's name, place of birth, maiden surname and, after 1984, occupation Please note: registrations made before 1969 do not include details of the parents' place of birth and mother's occupation How can you order his birth certificate though if you have no idea where or when he was born?
