Hi,

Is there any way someone could please find the parents first names on a record for Clifford Thomas Soper who was born in 1913 in Plymouth, Devon. I have found a record which gives the mothers maiden name as Beer. I am just wondering if he is another son of Frederick Norman Soper and Olive Beer who married in 1920. They had a son John Soper in 1921 and Brian James Soper in 1925 (who is my granddad).
Many Thanks
Laura

Hi Mike,

Thank you. I didn't think there was another child as no one in the family knows anything of another child, but you never know!

Thanks
