Nudging w/o comment just fills up page 1 of the board.

I'd add re one of these threads that suggesting that someone try the living relatives board *and not refer to an existing thread* amounts to suggesting duplicate posting. ;)

If your mother is C J Blight then you can buy the birth certificate.
This will give her mother's first name.
You can then look for a marriage and any births with the two surname combination.
Edit
Subject to the 50 year block,so maybe next year.

Not quite sure why you are doing it if your mother isn't keen to be honest. Are you doing this against her wishes?

You really need your mother's birth certificate to get you Grandmother's first name. Was she married to your mother's father please?
