thanks for that tracy; i have no idea where he was born - he seems to have led a bit of a nomadic life and had lived everywhere from glasgow to yorkshire. back to the drawing board on that account i think. i will apply for the certificate if i have enough info. thanks again.

Any idea where in England he was born, or his mothers maiden name?
