archive or similar for bastardy bonds or similar
« on: Wednesday 18 July 18 09:13 BST (UK) »
Researching a family where a number of illegitimate children were born.

I am wondering if there is an official site that perhaps has online records for research that may give some idea as to the mother and any actions by/for her for support from the father/s?

I would imagine that you would need to look at the archives of each county to see what is held there. I personally don't know of an online site covering Bastardy Bonds in the UK.
