I agree
Family History is a Pandora's box if you don't like what you see find a new hobby,only concentrate on the proven facts and not the facts you think you know.

Good evening, on the Adoption certificate there is a number in the top right hand corner - Application Number 7668.  In the bottom left hand corner it has AA 075382. In the first left hand column it says Entry Number 1848.  When I was in Manchester last week I checked the Adoption Fiche and it said Elizabeth Joan Morgan adopted 8/5/1944 Entry Number 1848 Vol 204.  Unfortunately for me the have got rid of off the BMD's and only have 2000 onwards. Elizabeth Joan married Arthur Davidson, the NHS went and put the ladies married names in the 1939 register. Elizabeth Joan then married George Hughes 25th May 1946, she died in 1957. George remarried to a lady called Irene and he died in 1981. I have sent the short birth Cert, the baptism certificate & the adoption certificate to Southport with a cheque last month but as yet not heard back from them. I would have thought with the reference numbers they could easily look it up. If anyone wants to look at these certificates please send me a private message.  Thank you all for your help and look forward to more suggestions.
Kind regards
Heather

Did the adoption have the age of Elizabeth Joan Morgan on it?

Are sure its 1944 and not 1934, unless they put the application in before her 18th birthday and it took that long too go through
