A marriage certificate would give fathers name and occupation, obviously a birth certificate would then give both parents(if legitimate). Other option would be a trip to the local records office for a trawl therough the parish records to find christening or marriage records. Once you have parents names you can start trying to tie them into census info. Regards Maxine
