Welcome,

First I would suggest looking for your fathers parents marriage.hopefully UK based.

Then it may be possible to find them in 1939 either by a single name or as a married couple.the English/Welsh 1939register does give their dates of birth or as true as given.plus theire are other records that could be of help.

If you find that to daunting then give some details and you will be given help almost straight away so please return .

Edit----If your fathers parents have passed away in UK since 1969 their dates of birth wil be listed in their death registration again if facts were known.Scotland have their own site but DOB is listed on the certificate.

Hello.

I am completely new and completely lost!.

I am trying to piece together my paternal family tree but information is SO sparse and there are no relatives to ask.

I have my late father's date of birth, place of birth.

I have his parents' names only, and his father's occupation and military address at the time of my father's birth.

This is all I have, no date of birth for them.

How can I find his parents' dates of birth, these would help a lot, I imagine.

Any advice would be so incredibly welcome. Please forgive me if I have overlooked any obvious routes for information, I am a novice here.

Kindest regards, thanks in advance. :-)
