Find Ancestors

Thank you all for your help I have now found my half brother, however I am still trying to find my half sister Lilian Ann Thompson born 1944 in Hebburn, she had a baby when she was 20 born out of wedlock a little boy my half brother does not know where she is and has had no contact with her in 50 years. he said he had to look after the baby but soon after she left with the baby and has had no contact since he does not want any contact with her if I do find her. He is very bitter and I do not want to push him to ask the name of the baby ,he found it very difficult to even talk to me so I have very little contact with him. I wish it could have been different I wanted so very much to be part of his life but seems it is not to be
any help would be much appreciated
thanks

Please continue on THIS thread, I have reported the other as it is a completely pointless to have the two.

Thank you I have The birth certificate of John Henry Thomas Thompson the fater is listed as Henry William Thompson should be Harry William Thompson so this is my half brother I wrote to him last Monday the address on his mothers death certificate is the same that I searched for on 192.com I just wonder if he will reply as I do not know what he knows about his father

Jeanerin,

May I suggest you reconsider that death cert. you purchased for Sarah E Thompson, for the following reasons.

Harry T.W. Thompson wed Sarah E, Flynn in March 1939 in Durham N.E

Harry T.W. Thompson wed M...y L...e in Sep. 1972 in Hastings --also listed as
Harry W. Thompson wed as above ' '' '' ''

The son born to Sarah E Thompson nee Flynn in Hendon 3a 1046 is listed as
John H.T. Thompson.

As you already have the death cert. for Sarah which should show John's address I think it would be worthwhile contacting him.
The only difference between the father and son is the W.

As for the Hendon being in Buckinghamshire..well there are folk on here who can tell you, myself included that Ancestry has had some glitches since they updated there site and folk are finding English people in US counties ect.

Best wishes

Just found out that my half brother also died soon after birth waiting for the certificate so i am wondering who the boy in the photo was i got a death certificate for aSarah ElizabethThompson maiden name Flynn died in hebburn thought that was my dads first wife turns out her husband was Wiliam Henry Thompson what are the chances of some one having the same names as the one i am looking for but not being them

Why couldn't the child have been born Hendon? It was war time people moved around.... Maybe she was staying with a relative whilst husband was at sea?

I Have answered all the relevant questions asked and it seems nobody takes any notice look back and tell me which I have not answered I have certificates and death certificates and have said so on the first page but if that is how you feel that is up to you

I give up.

You don't seem willing to answer relevant questions which are aimed at trying to help you, so you must go your own way. I wish you luck

The father doesn't give birth

You can't possibly have the ER for 1940...there wasn't one. There was a WAR on

Jacqueline the birth of John HT ancestry states Hendon Buckinghamshire on ancestry that is where I got the information I do not go on ideas and I know for a fact my dad was not in that area in 1940 he was in Hebburn as I have the electrol register for that year I know Hendon is in Middlesex I lived there most of my life

What was that woman's maiden name? Where was she born? (The one whose death it was)

Don't know where you get the idea that Hendon is in Bucks................

As per freebmd

The district Hendon is in the county of Middlesex; information about it can be found here

Just to re-cap my dad divorced Sarah in 1972 the boy born in 1940 is John Henry Thomas Anthony Thompson he is also the person who registered the death of Sarah Elizabeth Thompson Died 1975 in Hebburn I have the death certificate and not my Sarah the birth in Hendon Of John H T Thompson is Hendon in Buckinghamshire so iam back where I started but thank you all for your effort

Lilian MAY have married a man with surname SCOTT, but there are a lot of marriages for her name in Co Durham.

If you look at the other thread, Yvonne, you'll find the answer to that

hi
did you ever find the daughter born in 1944 she would know more about your father's children when he was married to sarah

Hendon is in Middlesex

There must be more info on the death cert............what is it?

And why are you ruling out the 1940 birth? Your father's being in the navy isn't relevant

If you don't have the birth cert, you can't be certain of anything

please don't jump to conclusions without checking facts, and getting documentary evidence

Just looked at the Birth Dec 1940 it is not my dad's son it say's Hendon Buckinghamshire he was in the navy on a death certificate I purchased for the death of a Sarah Elizabeth Thompson born 1912 died 1975 in Hebburn the son who registered it was John Henry Thomas so that was the 1940 Birth and it is the wrong death certificate so I wasted my money

Yvonne I will buy that certificate as I know his sister lived in burnt oak and the registration district is Hendon and Jacqueline I think you might be right I could not see the boy in the photo being 2 years old I always thought he was about 4 or 5 which would be the right age if he was born in 1940 thank you all for your help

The 1975 death cert should say who the woman's husband was............plus the woman's maiden name and birthplace
