Do you have a copy of the death certificate?

One dated 1989 should show place of birth, if the informant knew that information. It was nearly 20 years ago and perhaps people in the family have forgotten what others knew then.

Pam the bride of his father would be his mother which would show her maiden name. Irene

Marriage certificates do not name the mother only the father.

ROBERTS Florence Spalding 7a 351


This could be the missing female wrongly transcribed. The numbering starts at 851...this is the only 351 listed.

Probably not the right couple as there is this birth for 1911

I have checked Crowland and it comes under Spalding 7a. I put marriages for William Lane and there is a marriage comes up for 1909 Spalding 7a but 2 males and only one brides name.. That could be the parents marriage. If it was the right one and you had the mother's maiden name from the marriage certificate it could help you perhaps. Irene

I have an ancestor that had a son before her marriage and he was registered in her maiden name. In the later census his surname was the same as her husbands. He kept that name all his life even though it was not his birth name. Perhap your grandfather was born before his mother's marriage.

Do you have his death certificate? Do English ones mention the mother's name? What was his father's occupation on the wedding certificate?

This one is in 1911.

Found this
Crowland (modern usage) or Croyland (medieval era name and the one still in ecclesiastical use) is a small town in south Lincolnshire, England, positioned between Peterborough and Spalding
