'My dirty 3 x GGM had three illegitimate children in the early 1800s.' My dirty 4 x GGM had four... and guess what, it's my 3 x GGM who I can't find in the baptismal records! Must check the Quarter Sessions sometime to see if there's anything to enlighten me.

Does anyone know where I might find info out about my Grandma born 1920 she was in her words not mine!... A bastard! It doesn't give her fathers name on her birth certificate. However, she does have lofthouse as a middle name. I guess that's something to do with the fathers name. My Gran remembers as a young girl going to the town hall to collect money paid in by her father. Does anyone know how to go about finding this info. There must be a record of it somewhere. Thanks, Claire
