Find Ancestors

URGENT!!!

I have just received my fathers birth certificate.
it says Certified copy of an entry of birth.
it has the address where born,name of child,mothers name,residence,when registered,the name and ocupation of father has been left blank.

Is this a full copy of my fathers certificate or just an entry of birth? I am really confused on this one.

Hi Louise

As of yet I have no address for where my father lived.All he knows is that he was born in Harrow.We are still waiting for his fall birth certificate to turn up.It hasnt arrived yet I think due to the postal strike.Hopefully there will be an address on there.thankyou for the offer and I will keep you posted.
Dionne

Hi Dionne,
Do you have an address where your father was born? only I live in Harrow and could take a picture for you if you'd like if it is still there.
Louise

Hi Brenda.

Firstly thankyou so much for your time and effort with this.
Doesnt it seem very very strange that all the possible siblings found have no further information apart from their births and all girls too.
Do you think the birth certificates would tell us much if I did purchase them?

Thankyou Dionne

Hello everyone.
GUESS WHAT????
I have just spoken with Jean on the phone. I cant beleive it. Thankyou Rose for the phone number.
Now dont get to excited jean is not my fathers cousin but she is related to him.
They both share the same great great grandfather. I think they are about forth cousins. She dosnt know anything personaly about my fathers family but she does know a great deal about the Slopers in general. Most of them were gardeners and all lived around the Kent and Surrey areas. my dad has a great love of gardening.She is going to send me a detailed family tree tomorrow.
Now this I find spooky.She was born in 1942 the same year as my father. The month of August the same as my father.he was born on the 15th and jean the 31st which is my daughters birthday. Her street name is brookside and my fathers old address was brookside.
She was a wonderful woman to talk to and would love my father to call her. She can give him the background information on his history.
Thankyou for the previous messages and the information on Herberts brother Henry.
I see I have alot more information to look into now.Oh and by the way Constance is indeed Junes mother.
Brenda I see you might have found another possible sibling Do you know where willesdon is?
I am still determioned to find out if my father had brothers or sisters.I cant beleive that he was the only child. Tomorrow I will be ordering the birth certificates for Judith and Jean. I cant understand why apart from their registrations of birth there is no further information on them.Even if they are nothing to do with my father I feel they must have been adopted. Any ideas on how I go about finding this out?
It is a great feeling being able to give my father for the first time in his life some real family history. I am hoping now to find some possible relitives still alive.
I will keep you posted.
Thankyou
Dionne

Jean's maiden name was Bright. Perhaps she is Constance's daughter?

Rose

Dionne,

I have a phone number for Jean if you like. There's also a Constance Bright at her address. There's a coincidence.

Rose

Hi Brenda

Well this is getting very strange now. my father was born in 1942. The Jean I have with parents of Sloper and Livermore was born in 1934. So perhaps that is a red herring.
I am just sat on the edge of my seat waiting for Jean Pothecary to respond to my email and explain what connection we have with four members of the same family being listed in both of our trees.
I have also emailed her at the history society that Selina found for me.
Many thanks
Dionne

Believe the Jean married to a J Pothecary was born 1942 London married 1968 3rd qtr

Brenda.

Thanks Selina. I have just found it.
Thas two email addresses now.
Dionne

Hi Selina

Thankyou so much.
Christopher is my husband and has his family tree listed at genes. Antonietta is my cousin. But thankyou for looking.

I have emailed Jean again explaining the other names.I to really hope she gets in contact with me.As soon as she does I will let you all know.
Dionne

Hi

Oh I do hope Jean contacts u!.

Keeping my fingers crossed for u.

Clare

Dionne, I just put the surname Sloper in the quick search and looked for any entries listed by the name Jean. Then tried katherine Phillips.I noticed that there are two females listed by a Jean with births in 1973 & 1974 in the name Pothecary. If you look their birth references up you will find the mothers maiden name. If this is the same Jean, maybe this could provide a clue?

Brenda

Oh brenda WOW!!

I feel so close to solvong this yet so far away.I do hope she replies to me.How do you know the other names are on her tree.Did you do a tree search?
Thankyou Thankyou
Dionne

this other member Jean has, in her tree,

Katherine Phillips
Henry Sloper(senior)
Henry Sloper
Katherine Sloper
Herbert Sloper

These are all the people from the census that has been submitted on your thread. She has to have a connection somewhere!

Brenda

Hi Helen

Thankyou for your comment.

I havenot heard anything yet from the message I sent to jean.Fingers crossed that I get a reply.
As for the daughter my grandmother might have had before her marriage,I have searched for further information on her aswell but as with the other two girls all I can find is the birth and then the trail goes cold.If these girls were my dads sisters then I think they must all have been adopted.I dont really know where to go from here and I am now getting a headache.lol
Thanks
Dionne
