Family History Beginners Board / Brick wall in finding father
« on: Wednesday 21 December 16 22:09 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
I have hit a brick wall which i fear i will never break through. My late nan never talked about her father other than to say he was not a nice man and was never around, yet she was one of 5 children, all of which had their unmarried mothers surname and no father on their birth certificate. They were all born between 1914 and 1934. One of them, the youngest, is still living but when i wrote and asked they said they did not know for sure who their father was - they had an idea but weren't willing to give me a name.
Where do i go from here?
