With an illegitimate birth, the father’s name only appears on the certificate if he was present at the birth registration and confirmed paternity. (Otherwise a mother could name anyone with obvious difficulties if the information was not accurate). Where the parents are married, there’s a presumption of legitimacy and so they don’t both need to be there at the registration. Indeed neither needs to be there!

You could check with the local church to see if your ancestor was baptised. The father’s name might be listed there.

Hi Elwyn,

Thanks for the reply, i will see what i can find with the local church.

Cheers

Welcome to RootsChat  :)

You haven't given us the name or date of birth of your gt grandfather.

Is this the marriage of your Elizabeth Reid to William Logue in 1915? Her father William Reid, a labourer and she was living at Ergenagh (sic).

If the marriage is correct, then this is her in the 1911 census.
House 12 in Erganagh (Listymore, Tyrone).

There's a birth of a John Reid (mother Elizabeth) in Castlederg workhouse in 1912.
