Hello, I just introduced myself in the new members thread, I'm Sue!!
I have been wanting to trace my Dad's natural father for years now and have made several lame attempts as the information I have for him is very little.
He was adopted by the man I have known to be my grandfather when he was a baby.
My natural grandfather was a bigamist and therefore caused a bit of hoo-ha and although attempted to see my Dad was sent away.
I know very little about him as he was part of my Dad's life for a very short while. I have my Dad's original birth certificate which has only my natural grandfathers name and army rank, he was a Campbell and a Private in the Highland Light Infantry. And that is where the information stops.
Obviously my Nan doesn't talk about it and there is no chance of her ever telling me.
Is it possible to trace a family member with so little information?
