This is all great detective work, but we don't know its the right person, and how do you find out? |

POTTY. No my father did not have a middle name. |

Andy, Thats always been my problem. Without my dad's birth cert, or any other info, (No relatives who know anything) its gonna be a case of just something clicking into place. |

None of this explains why my dad has no birth cert. IF Alexander Collins was Millicent Collins father, rather than her husband, why is there no BC for Gerald Collins (My dad)? |

Sadly, yes you are correct. None of this info will help to find your dad's BC. It may have filled in a little of his background. There should be a Collins birth with MMN Collins but there isn't. |

I can't follow through on the birth which safc posted above : |

Andy, I don't actually need his BC just that it would, of course, give his parents names. I would dearly love to find out about my grandparents, where they were from, when they died (as I guess they have) etc. just need a little break and I'm sure it will all fall into place. Thanks for all your help. |

Only one other thing. Millicent did state that my father was baptised. It would have had to have been from his date of birth July 1932 to the time of her arrest and his placement into care, Dec. 1938. She says that he was born in Hendon so one would have to assume that the baptism took place somewhere around the area. Only other place that I'm aware of would be somewhere in Lambeth. |
