HannaB.. i can sympathise ;D the times i have sat wondering who it was i am almost narrowed it down. My grandmother had a solictors letter that went with the agreement it gave the solicto.r. I always felt it had something to do with the solictor dont know why then when the recent census came on line i thought i would have a a look for the solictor and soon discovered he married a divorcee who maiden surname was that of my grandmothers middle name which was unsual.

Kathb thats interesting....It appears that my grandmother was baptised with the forname  middle name and  surname her birth certificate mentions her forname  middle name  and mothers surname though her adoption agreement states otherwise just her forname and mothers surname..

Some interesting answers thank you..  Seems in my family the poem   comes to mind" oh what a tangled web we weave when we deceive"..  I feel sure i am going to find more intriguing info.. To be honest i have spent the best part of 24 years i have kept going because i was always intrigued by my grandmothers adoption which was before the 1926 adoption act..

Hi everyone just a thought really..
Just recently i aquired info regarding the surname thats given for my grandmothers middle name when she was registered in early part of 19 c.. 
Would any of you researching illegitmate ancestors have you found that this points to the fathers surname ..
Many thanks..
