Thank you for your help. If anyone has any more advice for searches relating to adoptions it would be greatly appreciated. I've looked into my own family tree but with my mum at my side and a whole lot of information so this search is totally different and somewhat complicated! |

Once you get the certificate, research the parents names as you would have done for your own family. |

It's encouraging to hear success stories! I'm not sure what we will do should we find any living relations but our first mission is to see if there are any out there! :-) |

Well this is where we get confused in all honesty, as he was born in London but raised in the North of England, where are records likely to be kept? |

It could be Scotland that Susan is referring to Kay. All of the marriage certs I have for my fathers family ( they are all Scottish) name both the father and the mother of both the bride and groom. |

Hi Tawny,,Could be but ref to-- county hall and council offices for adoption arent usual for E/W/Scotland,,and handing out adoption details of a deceased adoptee just wouldnt have happened in Britian. |
