I have nudged a thread 'Adoption Q's please help' It has the answer to your question,if it slips down the board just enter 'adoption q's' in the thread search. Glen

Just under the birth name. There is no index of 'before and after' names. The adopted name does not appear in the GRO index. There have been a few threads about this i will try and find one and nudge for you. Glen

Can anyone tell me if a child is adopted, is the birth registered under the birth name & then again under their adopted name? Or just under one or the other? Thanks in advance, Nikki
