They did return to the UK- his wife is listed on the current electoral register living in London, and both children are on Facebook.

I have pm'd details.

I don't see any children to the marriage in 1960- I wonder if he married again? There is a marriage of a British National in Tehran in 1966 John O Harbottle. 2 children born to this marriage- they may have returned to the UK.

This death would tie with the birth reg in the second qtr of 1929

Legal adoption didn't start till 1929 so maybe he was fostered or put in a home rather than adopted

How old were the boys when they were adopted?
Did your father keep his birth name?

There is a marriage for an Oscar John Harbottle in 1960 (Leeds)
and a death for a John Oscar Harbottle in 1986 (Windsor/Maidenhead) with a birth year of 1929
no other births recorded for Oscar John or John Oscar in England/Wales 1990-1945.

Thanks for all the help - yes Jaqueline I have only just started to do this but both my Dad and my dad's Brother are in my Tree.

Have you looked in search all trees for the names you have?

Are your father and his brother in YOUR tree? (So anyone searching can see the connection)

A possible marriage?? Just a long shot.

Any advice gratefully received.

Looking into my family tree. My dad was adopted - I have his adoption certificate, birth certificate and his Mother's name, no father's name is recorded. He knew he had a brother - found his birth certificate, same mother's name and no father's name is recorded. My Dad's brother was adopted to a different family and my Dad never knew where he went. Is there any way that I can find out any info about my Dad's brother's adoption records? Also would the Adoption records have any information about the Mother?

Plus having a lot of trouble finding anything out about his mum, birth cert, marriage or death. Would have liked to find out if he has any half brothers or sisters. Just keep banging my head against a brick wall. Maybe I am being fanciful but I did wonder if my Dad's middle name 'Loder' which is very unusual was a clue to his Father's name.

Mum's Name - Florence Harbottle

My Dad's name - Frank Loder Harbottle
Born - 30th April 1930
Place - Paignton, Devon - Totnes District

My Dad's Brother's name - Oscar John Harbottle
Born - 1929
Place - Paignton, Devon - Totnes District


Thanks.
