What was the address in Paddington? You could try electoral rolls to see who lived there?

first name bridget, mothers name. son born 31.05.1939 in paddington, london.

where would I start a search for mother? all I have is name, is it real? no details on marriage records, death records, in england and wales. Still trying irish records no evidence why just sounds irish.

Surely it has a christian name as well as a surname and not just a B for her christian name?

Fishguard was/is one of the main ports from Ireland to Wales,she may well have just come over for the birth with a name like that as it sounds very Irish.
