I am still having problems with this thread, my fathers BC arrived today Charles louis Williams b1932 Shoreditch mother Violet Smith, no fathers name! I was always told (by dad) that he had older married siblings that he never saw again after the war (he was sent away to a farm in the country) If this is the right Violet it makes her 59yrs when she had him. How do i find out is she is the right Violet or was married before & Smith was her married name not her birth name. I am at a loss as to what to do next, could i have some help or advice please.
