James father

Post by benrymnd »

I am trying to trace James Marsh father but I am having no luck James was born on 01-11-1807 St Helens lancashire, I can find his mother on his birth date but no father,I presume he had died or his mother and father were no longer together any help in tracing him would be most helpful.

Hi
What sort of record is that, giving his birthdate?
Is it possible that his mother was unmarried?
Have you tried searching for other children born around the same time and in the same place with the same mother?
