MY FATHER JAMES, DOB 8 AUG 1938, Boston Spa.
Father Wilfred, dob unknown dod approx 1963 in leeds.
he was a printer in the yorkshire post until he died.
I believe his family originated from Boston Spa / Clifford areas.
I also believe there was also a brother or brothers, but do not have another details.
I have tried to find a copy of my fathers birth certificate.
My mother is Felicity June Barry. they were married in leeds on 26 December 1958/9.
Can anyone help please.

cagsie,
my father has no middle name.
I have never done this before so please excuse my mistakes and thanks for helping me.

My fathers mother was fay but I do not know he maiden name or anything at all about her. There is a strong possibility his parents where not married.

June Qtr 1963
Wilfred Richardson age 65

This then looks like his birth
