Does anyone know anyone who was in the Lincoln Maternity Home, Macauley Drive, Lincoln in March, 1962.
I have been led to believe that the birth records are not available and I am trying to find out if I was born there.
I am Carol J Fairweather, born 08.03.1962 to brenda Fairweather
any help appreciated

Fantastic, thank you so much. My mum is adamant she was taken away 20 minutes after birth and given up for adoption, but I am wondering if she was confused and she perhaps was a stillborn baby. Will follow this up and report back

Hi KGarrad
Non-public register - presume that means unable to see it?

Thank you for your reply.
The one you have found is me.
My birth was re-registered the following year as Holmes when my parents married.
My mum is adamant she had two girls, but cannot find any evidence. she is said to have died later in life as a child in Yeovil.
Thanks again for your support - Carol

« on: Monday 07 August 17 07:48 BST (UK) »My objective is to find records of exactly where I was born and whether I had a twin sister or not!
This is what I have been told (I don’t know if this is true, which is my issue)
I was born in the Quarry Maternity Home in Lincoln UK on 08.03.1962 to Brenda Fairweather (unmarried mother). Delivered by Nurse Barrett.
I was a twin – my sister was called Marie Ann
I was kept by my mother and her mother - Florence Fairweather who arranged for the adoption (said to be a private adoption)
It is said Marie Ann was taken 20 minutes after birth and given to an army couple from Yeovil
I have a copy of my original birth certificate and my re-registration in 1963 when my parents married – neither of which shows me as a twin.
Can you help or advise me where to start?
