The certifacate states his father as Walter John Smith, deceased.
As my grandfather was born in 1907 his father could have died between these two years (1907_1928).
There is no mention of his mother and we have no name for her.
Do the directories say who was actually living in the premises and what the relationship is?
Any info would be very much apreciated thank you.

Hello Bracken
Have checked Directorie's for 1911 & 1938 and found the following:

1911 Directory

Walter John Smith - 11 Blenheim Road,Toxteth Park.

16 Roscommon Street - John Adams residing

1938 Directory
Walter Jn Smith - 36 Renshaw Street (Foreman)
Walter Jn Smith - 4 Trafalgar Place,Lower Bebington

16 Roscommon Street. Not Listed

You say you have your Grandfathers marriage certificate, do you also have his birth certificate? I have checked BM&D's and couldn't find a registration for him,you will need a copy of this to confirm who his Mother was. Once you have this a check on the relevant forum's will be possible for your Great Grandparent's marriage and any Cencus Returns.

Hope this all helps with your research.
