I really do think that you have to buy Fred's birth certificate ...... that will us his parents' full names, and a better chance of finding them. |

The GRO index only shows the mothers maiden name on entries after Sep 1911. It's odd that her birth reg doesn't show her mmn if she was deffinatively born after then. |
