I think his mum was called Elizabeth because my mum Mary Elizabeth Ethel Harper was given her Grandmothers first names as her middle names. Ethel is the name of my mums grandmother Lilian's Dawsons mum. |

This has been very badly mistranscibed but does prove that the marriage I posted was a George and Elizabeth |

I think getting the marriage certificate first as Rootgatherer suggested would be your best bet as that will name his father. If you order any birth certificate without knowing his father's name it could be the wrong one. |

As his daughter had Elizabeth as a middle name, this is a possibility BUT as Chris has said, get his marriage certificate first to make sure that you research the correct family. |

Ask away, there is always someone willing to help. Better to ask rather than go wrong and research the wrong family. |

You could order his marriage certificate as that would name his father. This should confirm that any birth certificate you order is the correct one. |

His marriage certificate will give his father's name and occupation. |
