Their baptism cert may have the biological dads name on ie, as the child's middle name. I struck lucky this way. |

Unlikely, official adoption didnt start til 1927 so there will be no records. Kids just moved in and took the families name. Though they often revert to their original one on official docs like marriage certs or army enlistment. If they married, you could get their marriage cert and see if the original dad is on there. |
