Find Living Relatives

Thank you for that.i have his death certificate as she sent me a copy.as he died in Cyprus and is buried there,it's in Greek.

You might be able to but 'might' have to produce the DC. Hopefully his partner will be willing to send you a photocopy. As long as they have been told (pension rights etc) the date of death might suffice. The records we are normally asked about are for older men who would have served in WW2 or shortly after..

It will cost £30 and may take many months to arrive. The organisation prioritises the needs of current or recent service personnel.

Added - if he actually married his partner, s/he can apply at no cost

As I've found out that my dad has died would I be able to get his army service history,and if I can ,how do I go about it?

Hi Shirley and thank you for your kind words.it wasn't the outcome I'd hoped for,but at least I know.ive told my dads birth sisters,they hadn't seen him for quite a few yrs so its all come as a bit of shock to all of us.we are going to hopefully meet up soon.

Ah thats sad Tracey . Seems some of his siblings weren't aware of that either .


Not what we had hoped for you but at least you know . <3


Sorry its turned out this way for you

How sad, but at least you have some sort of 'closure'.

Thank you for letting us know of the outcome

I'd just like to thank everyone,especially Shirley who helped me in my search for my dad.i was able to find his partner who informed me that he has sadly passed away,so today is a very sad day for me.his partner has sent me a letter and photo,so I know the circumstances of what happened.although not the outcome I'd hoped for,at least now i know.

I've ordered birth and adoption certificates from gro.parish priest was able to give me date of birth.ive got a tracing agency looking for him,even they can't locate him as their is no record of his birth.

There is a special register for adoption certificates - only the adoptee and his new parents can access it on application.

His original birth reg will have a notation next to it to indicate adoption, but as you don't know that name, you're up the proverbial!

If you think he was adopted, have you added your name to the Adoption Contact Register?

Can anyone help me out with info regarding birth/adoption certificates after the adoption has taken place.their is absolutely no record of my father ever been born.im getting desperate now,he will be 70 this yr if he's still alive.

OK,

There are several trees on Ancestry that have her a Marjorie Elizabeth born Sevonoaks.

They have Albert dying in 1944 but I don't see a death for him on CWGC. It could be this:

Deaths Jun 1944
Draper Albert 36 Dartford 2a 1101

This is closer:

Births Dec 1910 (>99%)
DANIELS Margery E Sevenoaks 2a 756

Rose

I don't know abt a different father for latter children.unsure as to Alberts date of birth/death.

Also, you say he was born c1945 but there's no Draper/Daniels birth then.

There are several Draper/Daniels children. The latter ones look to have another father.

Rose,how do i reply to u privately.

How did you get your father's date of birth and adoption records? Only the adoptee has access to these.

Rose

I will do Shirley and thank you.she had a hard life bless her from what I've been told.

Can you come back with her details from the cert when you get it :-)

The only Marjorie Daniels I found born in 1910,erpingham,Norfolk.ordered Marjorie's death certificate.i know the mod have changed it all now so very difficult to get hold of records
