Here's Lily's thread, although it hasn't been active since Aug 2012

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/ancestors/thread/1120035

Try posting on it, and if she doesn't respond within a couple of weeks, send her a PM by clicking on her name.

Assuming she still has the same email address, she'll probably reply to you when she is able.

Name and birth year are essential

IF he knew his father, the details should be on his marriage cert

Hello Christopher - not unless you say who he was!

There is a lady called Jersey Lily who helps on the boards (although I don't think she's on here every day) she would be able to advise.

Do you want to post some details?
