  • Adoption

    If someone was adopted in the early 1960's and obviously given a new birth certificate, should their new birth details show up on Ancestry or only on the adoption register which is obviously not in the public domain.

    The re-registration won't appear in the normal bmd index on Ancestry, it will be recorded in the adoption register though.

        The birth certificate and post adoption certificate (assuming you ever manage to find both documents for an adoptee) couldn't be matched together either as neither makes a reference to the other.

        The original birth cert should state "adopted" in column 10 but there will be no clue to the date of adoption or post adoptive names etc.


        You might find the following thread useful, the link is to the third page and some examples of post adoption certs (with names removed) are shown
