rosie99 - My post from a few years ago was slightly incorrect, as I initially read it wrong. There is no father stated on the birth certificate. A Rosenberg's name comes under the heading 'Signature, description & resident of informant' on the certificate.

I have the birth certificate for Wihelmine Martha Lutze (I tried scanning it as an attachment but it was too big). The 1911 census has her living with William & Esther Hobbs.

The birth certificate states that she was born 40 Lorraine Road, Islington. Also present at the birth was an A Rosenberg.

Good afternoon.

I'm looking for some help please to trace my paternal great grandmother.

My paternal grandmother Wilhelmina Martha Lucy Clarke (nee Hobbs) was born on the 11th August 1902. She always maintained that she never had a birth certificate. My initial searches seemed to prove this theory to be correct. A few years ago with the help of some kind people on RootsChat, I was able to locate a potential birth certificate for my grandmother. It didn't match the information I already held for but seemed to indicate that she may have been born out of wedlock to a lady by the name of Ida Emilie Lutze. Despite many hours spent searching to try & verify this information & in addition trying to find more information on Ida Emilie Lutze my searches have drawn a blank.

The Hobbs side of the equation comes into being from details provided by my elderly father plus a copy of my grandmother's marriage certificate.

I have wondered whether or not my grandmother was adopted by the Hobbs family but I think I am right in saying that formal adoption records weren't kept until the 1920's.

Thank you in anticipation & I'm sorry the post is so long.
