Hi, if anyone can give me ideas on how to look up my long lost half brother with very little information then i would be very grateful. I believe he was born around 1980, 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984!! Name i believe to have been Lee Morgan. Born to a Marilyn or Madalyn but i'm finding this difficult through records as i don't know her maiden name or even if she re-married after divorcing my father David Morgan DOB 20/01/1947 or 1946 or could even be 1948! As you see i have such a small amount to go on so if anyone out there can help me in any way i would be so grateful. I last saw him when he was 18 months old and feel there is a huge gap in my life without knowing him now. Regards to you all Leeann.

Do you know when your dad married Marilyn/Madilyn? Do you know where the marriage took place?
From this we can find the marriage & the cert will show her maiden name although it will show up on the registration provided she wasn't married more than once
From her maiden name we can find Lee's birth cert

Hi Leeann, it's going to be very hard, Ancestry site gives 14 day free trail so you could use it to look up his birth, you may find one that you think is him and it will give you a dob and area of birth which would at least be a start!
Hope this helps a little Good Luck

Hi christine and claire, thankyou for your replys. I am currently going through marriage certificates now but finding it hard as don't know where, when they got married! I thought if i did this i could find my fathers second wifes maiden name but think it gonna be a long job but definitely worth it. Many thanks to you both. Leeann
