You can't gain access to the adoption papers. The only person allowed access to those is the adoptee themselves and that can be a struggle at the best of times,the best you could hope for is assistance from one of the adoption intermediary services but it is only in extreme cases that they can offer assistance free of charge..

The legal aspects of what you can and can't do are explained on several sites, try the following for some guidance

This would appear to be his birth reg'n.......giving credence to my suppostion about his mother being unmarried

JENKINS Peter C. MMN Jenkins
Alverstoke 2b/862 JAS 1931

The chances of his father's name being recorded are slight, I would say.

It is very probable that his mother was unmarried.

Was PCJ his birth name?
