Lindy, my geography isn't very good so is Bolton-le-moors the same place and is Warrington nearby? Heather

Civil registration certificates for births, marriages and deaths started in 1837, although not all births were registered until it was made compulsory in 1875 (I think) nearly all were so you will most likely find an index entry for his birth and then you will be able to order his birth certificate.

I guess the only way is to buy his birth cert or search for a previous marriage -doyou know her maiden name ?
