Yes it is one D, I sound it unusual too, but it is correct. Thank you so much for that information, I know he grew up on a farm so that must be is, brilliant!! I've ordered his birth certificate and the waiting is unbearable ha ha. I'm 99% sure I'm on the right track though, it all adds up ??????

Hi everyone, I've been off here for a good few years but I'm back trying to find out information on my partner's deceased father and his ancestors. I'm waiting for the birth certificate to arrive to confirm who I think the mother and father are, my partner's mother remembers the name Strickland for his mother so I think I'm on the right track, and she died shortly after John was born. Anyway here's what I have so far, just wondered if anyone else is looking for the same people, I'm drawing a blank on John in other peoples trees.
