Other births????

Births Mar 1855 (>99%)
Porteous Isaac Ritchie Birmingham 6d 30

Births Mar 1889 (>99%)
Porteious Isaac Thompson Cockermouth 10b 512

If you buy the marriage cert. then that will give you his age (so you can work out his date of birth) and his address at the time of marriage. It will also give you his father's name and occupation which may help find him on 1911 census.

Hi,

After some advice if anyone can help. I am looking for birth information on Isaac Porteus who married Paley in Auckland in 1924 and went on to have children who I have the birth certificates for and has confirmed the father as being Isaac Porteus. I have found the mothers birth details who was born in 1905, but there are no birth records for Isaac within a 15 year period of Paleys birth date, could this be due to a overseas birth?? Or is there an area of research I am missing. I have thought about looking at Death records, but I have no idea when this would have been other than that he was living in the Chesterfield area after he had his children and was a Coal Miner. I have no information on his parents so can't search it that way.

I would be pleased for any help anyone can give me. Many thanks
