Family History Beginners Board / Re: Registrar's Name and Signature for Adoption
« on: Wednesday 04 May 11 04:56 BST (UK)  »
Thank you,

For clarifying my attempt to "clutch at a straw"in my search for an adopted brother. Information I had received suggested the endorsment "Adopted" was counter signed by a Registrar in a District where he was raised and lived.

It's all part of the search to check everything, thank you for clearing that up.

Regards,

jetden.

Family History Beginners Board / Registrar's Name and Signature for Adoption
« on: Monday 02 May 11 23:39 BST (UK)  »
Hello,

Is it possible to trace a Registration District from an additional counter signature?

I am searching for an adopted brother. His original birth certificate is signed by the Registrar, for the District of Samford, East Suffolk. However, because he was adopted, it is also endorsed "Adopted" and countersigned by a Superindentant Registrar named, A.E. Cutler.

Can you please tell me what District of Suffolk, A.E. Cutler would have been responsible for in 1949?

Many thanks,

Jetden

Herts Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Joyce TROUP b late 1920s

Hello Dawn,

Yes, on the extreme right hand edge, centred in the document height, the word "Adopted" is shown.
Immediately under the word "Adopted" is the name of the Superintendent Registrar,
Norman Tolson.

There is no doubt, at all, that my Wife was adopted, after being found under the gooseberry bush!

If you need further clarification, I shall readily respond.

Thank you again for your help.

Regards,

Rex

Hello Robyn,

Thank you for the "1939 Census web site address.

I have no reason to believe a false name would have been entered for the Mother on her daughter's birth certificate. This would be "supplying false information and fraud" attracting a punishable offence. Social norms in 1948 would have punished her enough.

I am awaiting positive responses from forum members, not necessarily specific details on my nominated person, but perhaps help and guidance from other adoption searches, which would help lift my confidence to overcome my feeling of complete loss of where to turn to for a lead.


Kind regards,


Rex

Hello Robyn

Thank you for your response. You will see from my reply to Dawn, that a relative recently, applied for birth certificate, revealed only the name and address of the birth Mother.

I have researched GRO, Adoption Agencies,birth hospital, Court which granted the adoption and Passenger lists. Electoral Registers confirm the same address for 1948. Later ones are missing. The searches over ten years have revealed nothing. Official files from 1948 are classified as " Missing or Destroyed". I have also followed many twists and turns only to find the wrong lady!

I am trying to utilise the combined resources of forum members knowledge to assist in this difficult task of gaining any information of JOYCE EMILY TROUP

Kind regards,

Rex

Hello Dawn,

in answering your question about my search for JOYCE EMILY TROUP.

Norcap, Salvation Army can not help. There are no adoption records, adoption agency records, hmcs court records or hospital birth records. GRO do not have any registered birth, marriage or death of this lady. 

I am seeking help to trace any information on my Wife's birth Mother. She may be now deceased.

By allowing my post to be published on this forum could instigate help and assistance.


If you decide not to publish, please can you recommend where I may be able to obtain information? I only have her name and address for 1948, as appears on my Wife's recently acquired birth certificate.


I understand that adoptees now have a legal right to know?

 
Regards,

Rex
