As Ronald is deceased, there is no way of knowing whether he told his family of your birth...............assuming he knew of it in the first place.

Any contact from you may come as a dreadful shock...............although, of course, as you have put his details on here, anyone googling can find this

Use the details for Ronald's death GRO index entry to order his DC from http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/
Shirley posted the details earlier

The Informant could be a relative

If you look on http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl you will see it's possible Ronald married in 1953.

You can look for Ronald B Williams living in Stoke on 192.com.(2002 - 2006)
There is one showing, who has 2 other Williams living with him one of whom could be his son and the other his wife?
Worth getting the address?

Hi Christine

Do you have copies of your parents birth certificates?

Welcome to the boards, Christine.

Have you looked to see if anyone on genes has either of your parents in their tree on here?

Do you know if you have any siblings, as they are some possible births showing, just that Williams/Roberts is a fairly common surname combination?

Do you know if Alice is still alive - or any knowledge of a possible divorce or remarriage?

Thank-you

my father was ronald berrisford williams of stoke on trent, my mother was alice maud roberts of stoke on trent born 1927. both had lived in fenton. I was born in 1948 and adopted in 1951 by george and norah mayer of 334 high fields ford green road. if any of the first two names ring a bell please get intouch. :-)
