Hi

Do you know who the parents are.  It might be worth searching by their surnames.  The name the person you are searching for may not be the one you know them by.

I never use Ancestry for BMD searches! ;)

Always use https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl.

However Ancestry have post 1983 indexes. Though as I understand it you can't buy the certificate if birth was less that 50 years ago unless you know the exact date of birth.

Do you want the name of the person I'm looking for, or my connection?
I can only assume his parents surname was the same as his own! not much help I know

Parents look likely to be Henry and Rose - do those names ring a bell?
