I was born in Bangor Wales in November 1942. My father was not entered on birth certificate. I imagine he came from Bangor. My mother was Irene Peain, can anyone shed some light on this for me? I have been making enquiries for years, last hope really.

Looks like your mother's maiden name was Birch.

Is there no marriage to a Mr Peain?

Since you were born during the war, your father could have been a soldier from anywhere in the country.

I imagine your mother was already married when you were born. Is this her marriage:-

Name: Bessie I Birch
Spouse: Walter J. Peain
Date of Registration: Apr-May-Jun 1932
Registration district: Devonport
Registration county (inferred): Devonshire
Volume Number: 5b
Page Number: 702

If your father wasn't named on your birth certificate then I imagine that her husband was not your father.

I think that only family members or friends of your mother may have an idea of who your father was.

There are several other Peain/Birch children.
