Lorraine do you know the person who has

Paddy Berry 1951 London (Ec) London

in their tree at this site?

That is the person whose birth was mentioned above, who had a sister close in age.

The same person has the sister in their tree.

It would be delicate to make an inquiry, but this could be worth trying.

Is he named on your husband's birth cert?

If not, did the information come from your mother-in-law?
Did she refer to him only as Paddy, or as Patrick?

Thank you for your replies but I dont have much to go on as my husband never knew is father and we are only going on what we know.
Paddy met my mother in law in Tottenham in early 1970s, Darren was born Dec 1975,
Paddy had a sister (possibly a twin) and he also had at least 1 brother.
Their family were originally from Cork or area of, and had Romany Gypsy blood.
Paddy also fathered a daughter 1974

is Paddy a near relative? if so and he was married you should be able to find his

marriage and the cert should give his dads name,if known

Welcome to the boards Lorraine

There is a birth of a Paddy Berry in Hackney in 1951. His given name is Paddy and not Patrick.

There is also a girl born the following year with the same mother's maiden name so could be a sister.

You can check these births at FreeBMD

There are a lot of Patrick Berry births around that time so without knowing his parent's names it is difficult to be sure of the right one.
