Member Since: January 2005 Posts: 557 Send Message	hi all my grandma recently told me that her uncle and his wife adopted a son and named him George. she says the child was abt 10 yrs older than her making him born in about 1918. i have found a record for a George Rogers born 1919 in Horsham which is roughly the area they lived. could the child have been registered under their name (Rogers) straight away or would he have had a completely different name at birth? sorry i don't know much about adoption processes etc. how would i go about finding his birth? Thanks. lee.x
