You have to buy the certificate. PS Do not understand the birth years you have given.

Hi If he was born before 1901 you can use the census to search, a good site to sign up to is ancestry, it costs about £70 a year, but you get census, & the bmd indexes as well as alot of other info. Well worth the money each year. Also parish records for a baptism can reveal parents names. hope this helps sandra
