The sure way to find out his father's name is to buy the cert for his second marriage

Have you looked for a possible baptism on the IGI?

Deborah

Deborah Report 22 Oct 2011 21:37

Thanks so much Flick.it would have his fathers name on 2nd wedding cert would it?.many thanks for your time:)

Just for info..........FREE on line sites

BMD's from 1837 to approx 1945/50.........look on

http://www.freebmd.org.uk/

Baptisms and marriages pre-1837.........look on

http://www.familysearch.org/eng/default.asp

OR

https://www.familysearch.org/

TIP

Never assume anything....especially with regard to ages.


The 1789 marriage isn't really so unlikely for the parents of someone born c1801
