Sorry just realised I have answered one question and asked another - will try not to do that in future. Just getting carried away at the thought of getting somewhere!

CHEERS FOR ALL YOUR HELP.

My dad is Thomas Henry Smith married Margaret Berry in March 1952 at age 21. I never knew him or his family as parents divorced and he emigrated to Auatralia when I was 3. Have always needed to know more about him. Any idea how one searches emigration records

What is your dad's full name and have you any idea of his birthdate?

Thomas Heath is the Christian name. Smith the surname.

Will apply for dads birth certificate. May sound daft but I hadn.t thought about that. Fairly new to this so please bear with me

If you get your Dads B/C it will give you his Mums name

I would be really grateful for any assistance that anyone could give about the marriage of my Grandad, Thomas Heath Smith who was born in 1898 in Rotherham. I know my father was born about 1930 but can.t find any details about the grandmother I never knew. If anyone knows any details I would be over the moon.

Thanks
