Hi Hayley,

You have not upset any one so dont worry about it we all have to learn.

If his birth cert is in his mothers name it looks like she was single when she had him so you wont find his fathers name,


Do you have the birth cert ?

Hayley

You have spelt Joseph incorrectly in your post - are you sure the surname is correct?

What is the Christian name of mother Eales?

We need really accurate information if we are to be of any help.
