Did your father have a middle name?

Hi All

Yes there was a child, although I am not 100% sure that Alexander was the father.
The child was my Dad. He died in 1991. He didn't have a birth cert. (Well not in the name of Gerald Collins. Could be that he was actually born as someone else and was given Collins when Millicent married/met Alexander))
I have been reasearching for 18 months now.
I believe my dad was born on 16th July 1932, possibly in Hendon.
He was fostered when he was 5 and a half years old. Never saw his natrual parents again. (As far as I know)
I have the names Millicent and Alexander Collins from an arrest sheet for Millicent. 30/12/37. She was arrested in the Kennington Road for being drunk. My dad (aged 5) was with her. He was then taken into care.

Christine

The fact that your father didn't have a birth cert doesn't mean that there wasn't one.

Have you looked for a registration?

Is your father living?

Is your dad known as Collins? You should be able to find his birth cert .or we can take a look for you

What led you to these people?

I'm guessing they produced a child........if so, what was the child's name? And birth year/birthplace?

Have you tried researching?

Hi

Yes I have. Problem is, my dad never had a birth cert. so I'm not able to get his mothers (Millicent) maiden name.Makes it very difficult to search a marriage.
