Ah - you’ll probably be asked to edit out his first name on here if he is still living, under Rootschat policy. 

Search www.freebmd.org.uk for index details of the registration to enable you to order a birth certificate from GRO Online (I’m afraid I still can’t see it, even with the new information).

Oh, I see. Thank you. Didn't realise about the name policy.

Thank you everybody. Yes, she was Margaret Birkett and gave birth to Removed Birkett in 1934. She got married in 1938 and returned to Bishops Castle with the baby and the new husband.
I haven't applied for the 1934 birth certificate yet, maybe I should.
Maybe it was just a private arrangement and we will never find out who the father was.

The gentlemen in question is still with us and says he hasn't got his birth certificate. It seems his birth wasn't register for nearly 12 months!

Hi, this is Mabel's granddaughter Vanessa. Are you still researching this tree? I have a break for a while, but I'm back on it.

Yorkshire (East Riding & York) / Single Mothers 1934 - Birkett baby left behind.

Please advise.

A family member gave birth in 1934 in Goole. She then moved away for 4 years over 200 miles away leaving the baby behind. She met a gentleman and returned to Goole where they married. They then collected the now 4 year old, changed his surname to her new husbands name and they returned to their town and lived happily ever after.

I am trying to find the real father. I can not find any marriage for her previously or any record of a baptism for the baby in his real name.

What would happen with a baby born out of wedlock? Where would he go for 4 years in 1934?
Would he have a new birth certificate as he had changed his surname?

Any advice would be gratefully received.

Thank you
