Help to find a birth/Baptism please.
« on: Wednesday 12 August 09 22:39 BST (UK) »
Hi I've got a little brick wall I could do with some help with, if at all possible.

I have a Dorothy Violet Kennett born 1908 in Canterbury kent.  I know she had a son Gordon Brown or Browne.  I have to date been unable to find any record of a marriage for her to a Brown/e.  Or a birth record for Gordon.

I have just found out that it's possible Gordon was born out of wedlock, and have tonight found a registration of a birth for...

Gordon R Browne in Birmingham Warwickshire
Mothers name Kennett
Vol 6d Pge 817

It is a long shot, but other than ordering the birth certificate can anyone help me to spread any light on this.

Any help would be very much apreciated.

Thanks in advance
Trace

Hello Trace,
I suggest that you order the birth cert from BIRMINGHAM REGISTER OFFICE, you can give the mothers name &  they will only send you the cert if there is a definate match...if not they will return your cheque to you. Sadly they are not able to take online orders at the moment so you will need to send a SAE & cheque for £7.00 made out to Superintenent Registrar.   ADDRESS :

BIRMINGHAM REGISTER OFFICE
HOLLIDAY WHARF
HOLLIDAY STREET
BIRMINGHAM
B1 ITJ
