Welcome to the boards Kelly.

You will need to give a lot more information if you are looking for help with your family tree.

There will be literally hundreds of families called White in any area of the country.

Start with what you know - like parents and grandparents and then tell us who you are actually looking for. Give names, approximate dates of birth etc.

Hi all.

Well I was born in Dulwich hospital in 1976.

Father was Harry White. Assuming he is still alive. Don’t know.

My Mum is Patricia.

They married 1975 and she divorced him. I won’t go into why on here.

Anyway I’m trying to put my family tree together on both sides so that I have
Something for my daughter when she grows up.

I believe I have sisters from either Harry’s previous marriage before my Mum or the one after my mum. No idea.

His wife other my mum was Julie A Batchelor and I think could have been in Southwark? I think they married 1978. She might have had a daughter called Kerri Paula with Harry but I don’t know. In fact I have no idea how many possible children he had aside From me.

He also married Anne M Czezowski in 1969 I believe.

He also had a sister called Patricia and she lived in Peckham.

His mum was called Rhoda Grace Clark was Edgar and his Dad was also called Harry White.

They lived in Ferndale road Brixton.

Given the not very nice history between him and my mum, That’s all I know.

It would just be fitting together the pieces of the puzzle when extending my family tree on the White side. As I don’t know any of them

Thanks for reading

I see a son born to his first marriage, but he was also registered under another surname which would suggest Harry might not have been the father.

In case you don't know (you don't mention it) - your father was born in 1945, registered in Lambeth.

As Rose says, you can find that on FreeBMD, but searching births using the two parents' surnames.


EDIT:
but I see you've added a note to his birth record on Ancestry, so you do know!

Gender: Male
Age: 60
Birth Date: 5 Aug 1945

Stated DOB fits with your father's birth reg in 3rd qr of 1945, and he was the only Harry White born anywhere in England or Wales in 1945..

That man was living in Raleigh Road SE20 until the 2006 Electoral Roll.
There was nobody else listed with him.
