Julie between 1901 & 1912 you have to buy birth certificates to check if they belong to the right parents, from 1912 the mothers maiden name is included on birth indexes so it's easier to sort out children born to the same parents. Georgina.

Julie I dont know if it will help but my father was called Sonny, because he had the same first name as his father so rather than confuse matters he was always called Sonny I wonder if it was the same for your rellie? Georgina.

If they happened to die between 1984-2004 you can find the birth dates from the death registration on Ancestry, Margaret
