Ok Folks need a wee bit of help today to complete my search!!
As you may already know my great grandfather was a foundling - so in order to find out who he was i had to go to GRO yesterday and search his birth cert - was doubtful i would find anything! But low and behold i found him - he was born on 28/10/1886,registered on 10th Dec 1886, no birth father registered, mother - Mary McConnell, seamstress, her place of residence was listed as drumo + drumcro, that is all the details i have for her, no age, no parents,i am assuming her year of birth could range from 1845 - 1871.where do i go from here or is this the brick wall!
Thanks for reading this, hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.
