Were the parents married at the time? Perhaps the mother was married to someone else at the time so wasn't free to marry until after the birth. When you say he has the father's surname what do you mean, as you say the father isn't mentioned on the certificate. Kath. x

Illegitimate ~ even though it was the 80's?! ! ! He even has his Dad's name as his middle name and his Dad's surname, so how does that work when his Dad isn't down as the Father? Confusing... Stella
