Formal adoption didn't start until 1927 so any aopdtion before this time wil have been on an unofficial basis and you are unlikely to find any records.

Plaes can someone help me with a little puzzle. 2 siblings on my family tree were adopted by their aunt/uncle between 1881-1891. Their father died in 1880 and i assume their mother died as i cannot find any record of her after 1871!

how can i find out more info on this area.
