Put a notice on the Trying to Find board. If your father was in the army and entitled to an army pension, you may be able to contact him through the Army Record office. "Those from 1922 are held by the Ministry of Defence, Bourne Avenue, Hayes, Middlesex, UB3 1RF and are only issued to those who can prove they are the next-of-kin of the serviceman or woman concerned. " (from this website's Genealogy Resources section). Also see the other thread on this board "Searching for birth parents". Good luck nell
