UK Births 1980s

How to look up birth of a baby girl in UK, probably London, early 1980s, knowing only fathers full name and mother's first name?

Please don't post the details you have- since the birth was in 1980s it's quite possible the child and her parents are still alive.

Do you know if the parents were married? and is the father's surname very common or will it be fairly easy to find in marriage index?

You say UK but sounds that you know it's England rather than any other part?

London I would guess but not sure.

Thanks Moderator, you are correct in that at least one party is still alive and possibly all three - I had no intention of publishing the names.

The online searchable birth index goes up to 2005, the search method would be the same as any birth record but as it's a post 1911 event the maiden name of the mother will be given in the index along with district, volume and page details.

Where you might come unstuck is if the child was born out of wedlock and therefore registered in the surname of the mother, without knowing the surname to search for you don't really have a record to trace.
