Start with the birth indexes,they have them at www.ancestry.co.uk
it will have his mothers maiden name so should be quite easy to find his parents marriage ref


*** He was born in the June 1/4 and his mothers maiden name was Hobson
Salford 8d 439

Have a look here as well.  It might not go as far as the year you're looking for but it might come in handy.

I'm trying to work it out
Albert Finney is your Grandma's sisters Grandson,his Mum's maiden name was Hobson,so you'd have to look for his parents wedding,if he was one of the oldest children,his mum might have been born after 1911 so that would give HER mothers maiden name,which should be the same as your grans maiden name.I think!!


**June 1/4 1936 Salford 8d 439 is the code for Alberts birth certificate,that would tell you his parents full names

Am I right in thinking that your Gran's maiden name was Thomas? If you know when her sister was born you could look for a Thomas/Hobson marriage on freebmd
