	Hi Tiziana, Try searching the birth indexes on 1837online. From September 1911 the mother's maiden name appears in the indexes, which will help you to sort out which children were possibly theirs. If you don't have his wife's maiden name, you will need to find his marriage first. Best wishes, Carole
