It would give mother's name though, so marriage could be confirmed. Then the marriage cert!
It's sadly the case that certs are needed from time-to-time, especiallly with a common surname, and it's not cheap.

Well, the people in your original thread have mother with maiden name Rimmer. A James Brown/Rimmer marriage has been found, and the birth of a James with Nairn as his mother.
Adding this up I would be very surprised if they were not grandchildren of james and Olga bur I suggest you jot all this down and have a think about it!
The only really 100% certain way is to get birth and marriage certs.

No it does'nt there are hundreds of james Browns you would have to order the marriage cert to see who the father was and should give his age
