You could obtain his birth certificate. You will need to find him on the Irish birth index. If you have a LDS centre near you, they will have the index. You will then need to order the certificate from Belfast. I will try and find the address for you if you want. |

Hi Pamela, If your father was born in Scotland you could download his birth certificate and view the 1891 and 1901 censuses for Scotland on www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk. You would also find out details of his parents and download their BMD certicates. It's a pay to view site but well worth the money. I'm sure that someone else will comment on where to look for any other information in the rest of the UK. Good luck Regards Margaret |
