"thanks.... i found his birth and mothers maid name but thats it ..this looks so easy on tv" - so now you can send for the certificate :)

Re so easy on tv - yes, unfortunately, that is a problem with such programmes as who do you think you are; a lot of the research work is done for the celebrities without having shown how and where it has been done.

If your father and his brothers were born in England or Wales before approx 1955 you should find the births here

Find your fathers birth then look for any siblings by entering fathers surname and mothers maiden name

To find the marriage just click marriage instead of birth

Hopefully the names are not too common
