 This is the name on my friends birth certificate Her mother was adopted she thinks within the family .Her father  was David John Paul b1886  She was told that her mother had a stepmother and an older stepbrother named John Stevens. In a family tree record  Eirwens. mother is stated unknown If any can help with this mystery we would be very grateful.  Thank you Tineke

I have confirmed birth as 1918 Glamorgan.      Father David John Paul.   Mother still unknown I have sent for marriage certificate  for David John Paul and Gwenllian Jenkins 1911  Eirwen was adopted within the family so we are told.  And born 7 years after that marriage.  Pretty sure Gwenllian was not her mother  I cannot find a birth registration for Eirwen in Wales or England Would like to get copy of her birth ,any ideas. Many thanks  Tineke

It may be that Eirwen was 'adopted' by both David & Gwenllian as she was resident with them when she was about 20.  What is the source of the information that he is her father other than I would imagine her marriage certificate.
