all good now :-)

Thanks joonie deleted my part xx

getting a little personal here

Amanda's parents are living? and may not want the details of their personal lives posted here

PricklyHolly and Amanda, I would delete the question and answer above about that subject

and also the info about their place of residence (including malyon's post on that subject)

and the info about the 1963 marriage of people who are likely living, immediately above


Amanda's parents are considerably younger than me (and many of us), and I know I would not want my personal life details posted on the internet

the last time your dad and mum was on the electrol roll was 2007

My mother is janice Elizabeth griffin.and thank you prickles I will definitely order that to be sure :-)

Janette's marriage sent by PM.

And 2 children born to the marriage.


Facebook connections sent by PM.

what was your mothers name?

It would be lovely for you to be able to trace your family history Amanda.

I could post some possible Sutton/Hill marriages.......but at the end of the day, they are just possibilities.

I can only advise you to purchase a copy of your fathers birth cert, so that you know for certain who his parents were.

Sadly no I no longer have contact with my father my mother and him both moved out of Birmingham so I don't have any other family who I could ask as no contact was kept.and yes Malyon I beleive that they were married and all children born in Birmingham :-)

Is there no one in your family who can remember the names of your Grandparents Amanda?

There are several possibilities......you might have to send for a copy of your father's birth certificate for details of his parents.

The best place to order certificates in online here........

http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/

Certificates cost £9 25p

was your dads mother and father married in birmingham and the other children born in birmingham

Thank you detective will have a go :-)

Check out http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl & follow the instructions given earlier only this time select the registration district of Birmingham (1932 onw)

Although Freebmd is an ongoing project, it throws up 6 results (inc Dad) 1950-1970

The twin's name has been recorded as Janette Hazel

I will PM you the birth details........Hazel is her middle name.

The jannette hazel that you have found is hazel a middle name or surname iv confused myself as I thought that was John's mother :-S

Sorry, I mean't to say John Robert with a twin.

Prickles.

Sorry my father is john Robert sutton not Robert and I thought the jannete hill that I had found was his mother but as I abit of a novice with all this I could be wrong :-S

Wow I never new about a twin sister my farther was from Birmingham. I think just through remembering snippets of what he used to tell me that he had a sister called tracey and a brother could tim there are more but not sure of any other names thank you for your help

Hi Amanda

There is a Robert born 1966 Birmingham who has a twin sister Janette Hazel

Does you father have a twin sister?

It helps enormously Amanda.

http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl is a free site to use and does show your father's birth reg. It would seem that he had a twin sister?

Using that site
Select Births
Surname - Sutton
Mothers name Hill

Add a wide year range - I used 1950-1970 which threw up a few more matches in the same reg district. There's a few more in West Brom, but unless you know differently, they could be from a different Sutton/Hill marriage.
