Hi Wendy,

You don't say how old the son was. If he was born after 1912 and you know the mother's maiden name it might be possible to find other siblings on ancestry. A place or area of birth would also help. If you haven't got ancestry just post the information that you have.

Hi Wendy,

As there are so many possible ones on Free bmd and no siblings born after 1912, the only choices I can see are:-

1. Wait until the next census comes out
2. Look them up in the parish records
3. Search for someone researching the same family.
