Hi Ev
no it doesnt say anything about father that was one of the reasons
i sent for the cert to see but its just blank
I know this usually means he was an orphan but he had to have a mother
and i have tried everything but to no avail thats why im looking for his birth
place to send for his birth cert
I know he was in the Merchant Navy and was killed on board a mine sweeper
during ww2 his name is on the statue of honour in london
i do appreciate you helping me thank you
