wow thank you everyone.While this still leaves a lot of questions it certainly gives me a lot of new leads to work on once I unscramble my brain
       I am really grateful for all your help.

Have you discounted this one
JACKSON, FREDERICK       mmn BELL 
1881  Dec Quarter in YORK  Volume 09D  Page 28
I have looked at this one on a number of occasions but not been able to ascertain if this is the right line to go down (another frustration).would love to just find something that would  give me certainty.

Hi

Did he go by his birth name, or did he take on his adoptive parents' names?
If you could tell us where he was born, and which censuses you have found him on, plus the name he went by so we can help.

Terri
He was known by his birth name Frederick Jackson b.1882 with adoptive parents Luke and Hannah Abbey and their daughter Sarah Ann at St georges court york in the 1891 census.He married Bridgett Davitt in 1911 and the wedding certificate states fathers name John.
 I have suddenly realised I have asked this question before although it was quite some time ago (maybe there is more info available now) it is still driving me mad trying to find out.

I have the names of my ancestors adoptive parents and also the name of his biological father as appears on his marriage certificate.Unfortunately the name of his father being  John Jackson with no date of birth or without mothers name I am just going down blind alleys all the time.
  Is there any way of finding out who my ancestors biological parents are??  (I know by the time he reached 9 years of age he had been adopted as he was with his adoptive parents on the 1891 census but he had not been born at the time of the 1881 census)
