He was registered at my mums house so isnt there at the Fleetwood address and I wouldn't have a clue if he had immigrated, I really should go on long lost family haha :) they would probably find him x

If someone doesn't want to be found it can be very difficult.

Could he have gone abroad?

Have you written to the address in Fleetwood, Lancashire where you say he was until 2004? He was actually still there up to at least 2007 and may still be there but just opted out of the commercially available Electoral Register.

Its driving me up the wall the fact he seems to be untraceable.

I would imagine that ErikaH is asking because if he didn't know about you he might have a family who also weren't aware of your existence and you would have to be very careful about intruding on their lives. With family history matters you have to look at the bigger picture and not just what you want for yourself.

However, since he knows about you that helps with your search although he still might have family that don't know about you.

Why do you ask that?

There are so many John R Suttons on the electoral roll. Looks like he had siblings. Have you tried tracing uncles and aunts?

Hello all just wondered if anyone could help me find my dad he was Born John Robert Sutton MMN Dunn in 1965 in Birmingham, Warwickshire. I have tried so hard to locate him and been unsuccessful, last known location was in 2002-04 in Fleetwood, Lancashire. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
THANKS!!
