Tracing some one with no birth or death dates?

I asked this question a while ago but im still stuck so wondering if anyone knows anything else?





On my grandfathers birth certificate it says mothers name and fathers.





I searched and itsjustme has searched for his parents marriage but had no luck. so I only have their names with no birth place or date





I typed in his mothers name and 1 birth came up, which is great but if I buy it, it still doesnt prove if its his mother.





Asking family is no good as know even new his side of the family.





I know this question is a long shot but thought I would give it ago.





thank you
Tracing some one with no birth or death dates?
The only way you can make that link is to find a baptismal record and cross-reference the parents through sacramental registers. If there was an illegitimacy, the baptismal record should reveal that. If the parents were married, it should give you identifying information on them and you should be able to find a marriage record off of that. The church involved may even have a copy of the marriage register for the parents%26#039; marriage.

try and look for where they lived,chance is if they vanish it may be at time of death,then look at nearest burial plots to see if they are registered.local library recoeds may be more reliablw if u know the local ones
Reply:You need to know a place of birth, residence as a child or place of marriage to really have any hope.
Reply:If you have your grandfathers place of birth and his parents names you might be able to find a census listing with their names on it around the time your grandfather was born. Also look on line at the cemetary listing around where your granfather was born if you think they died there. Another good place to get help is http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/ . You can post a message on several different board there.
Reply:I had the same problem tracking my husband%26#039;s greatgrandmother%26#039;s marriage. I later found out that they were never married, but she just took his name and had 8 children and were together until his death. So don%26#039;t discount that possibility.
