Unable to locate a birth in England so tried Scotland. Only Thomas Edward is this one: |

What is his fathers name on the certificate and also his occupation? |
|||
|
mothermaclean | Report | 16 Feb 2009 18:21 |

I still have to get the certificate but his occupation is General Labourer i didn't think a death certificate has a father's name on |

Sorry, I should of made myself clear. I meant the marriage certificate - if we could find his parents then one could work from there. The marriage certificate will give his fathers name and occupation and sometimes the witnesses can be useful. |

Best just to put one name though. If something isn't exactly correct they won't send the cert. Keep the information supplied just down to the bare minimum. |
