Find Ancestors

Can anyone help we are trying to trace my husbands` father Roy Stacey born 1935 Hendon,mothers maiden name is Instone .We know nothing else about him .Thanks
Regards julie

Are you trying to find where he is now or is it his ancestry you are looking for?

I think would lead to the other but at moment just like to be able to do family tree

If you are doing his(Roy's) family tree what are his parents' full names?
There is no obvious parents' marriage, so either mis-spelling or her second marriage?
Thanks

His birth cert will give you hsi parents names ,I am not finding a marriage for a Stacey to an Instone around that year there is one for 1944 in London .

Thanks for replies
Susan:yes husbands birth cert says Roy Stacey and mothers name but nothing else.
yes we found marriage for Instone and stacey but cannt be sure its them.
Patchem: mothers surname is jones so not even going to start on that yet!!!!

So this is their marriage. Was her name on the birth cert. Marion?

If It says nothing else, then presumably he was illigitamate- no father actually named on his birth cert?

Is Edith his sister?

Does your hubby have the full birth cert? if so and no father given then looks like his mum was a single parent, What was her full name please

So is your husband Stuart R.?

If you get this marriage certificate it will give you the name and occupation of Roy's father or his birth certificate which will give you the names of both of his parents.

You need the birth cert for Roy in order to proceed . it may be his mum had been married before so the marrige would be in another surname for her

You say you going to London to get some certs .They arent in London.
You can order online from www.gro.gov.uk qoting the GRO ref OR order for the local Register Office but it wont be London.

The LRO in London no longer holds the big red books with the GRO refs, these have been sent to Kew and archived.

thanks shirley
I knew they where at kew but thought that you would still be able to look at them.Thats a real pain if you have to keep paying for certicates ,i`m doing my family tree as well (wraight and worlock0 was hoping to look up a few of theres as well .

The big books only had the GRO refs You have never been able to view the actual certs ,you ordered them through the LRO and they were sent direct to you from GRO Southport.

Now the BMDS are online they have archived the books with the GRO refs
