i found him he was adopted to evan and hannah bather

his birth name

joseph albert davies

many thanks for the help shirley its been a mystery for a long time but now solved

:-) :-) :-)

do tell as its interesting when having done searches :-D

If he was adopted in 1910 there will not be a record as all adoptions were informal until the 1930s.
Possibly his mother re married & he became known by the surname of his stepfather.
There are several instances of this in my family.

You state adoption so what was his birth name please and where was he born ?

hi mel his birth could be but death an marrage is ruthin denbighshire

tia

Have you got his marriage cert ? That would name his father ,if known

hi hope i posted this in the correct place

ive been searching for my grandfather Joseph A Bather i can find a marriage and death but no birth i got the year from his death ive search either side an every combination i think possible i then spoke to a family member who said he may have been adopted but they couldnt be sure.

so my question is how can i find out if he was?ive just sent for his birth certificate with the limited info i have in the hope it sheds some light but thought i would also ask here
