<title>Illegitimacy  Adoption (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>well I've spent the weekend painstakingly trawling through the marriage &amp; death records covering the years 1915- 1962 so far</p>
<p>There is only one entry that could possibly be the child born in 1920, a marriage in Plymouth in 1945.  I doubt it her but only a marriage cert can confirm</p>
<p>I found a death entry for the child born in 1925 died in same quarter </p>
<p>I am presuming if one were adopted that they most likey changed their names</p>

<title>Illegitimacy  Adoption</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have come across 4 illegitmate children, 1 born to one mother and 3 to another(sisters)  all 4 born in the 1920's so could still be living.</p>
<p>The single child, was brought up by another couple but kept the name given at birth so has been fairly easy to follow, I found him through his granddaughter on Genes reunited</p>
<p>However the other 3 children were totally unknown of and my father (cousin to these children) also born in the 1920's hasn't heard of them before either, 1 died in the same quarter as their birth, that leaves me with 2 so we are presuming that these 2 children may have been brought up elsewhere or adopted.</p>
<p>Would anyone know the best way I could try and find out more about these missing 2?  <br />
Birth certs list East Dean as place of birth on one and Westbury S on the other, mother is listed as a Domestic of Cinderford on both, so i am presuming that they were both actually born in Cinderford.</p>
<p>Was there a local place where adoptions were arranged ?</p>
