Hi, I wonder if anyone can help. I've been tracing my great grandfather's ancestry and it turns out although he was a Reynolds, his mother (nee Walpole) was actually widowed (her husband was Joseph Reynolds) by the time he was born in 1898. So although she gave two further children the name Reynolds, her late husband, who was father to several of her other children, was not his father. |

Well you register a child in your current surname so even though she was widowed that was still her surname |

If his father's name isn't on his birth cert, then I'm afraid there's no way to find it out. |

Thank you all - unfortunately I can't afford to order birth certs at the moment so am seeing what can be done online. |
