I have that looking for my grandfather he was Arthur William born in Cambridgeshire in 1871. If your dad was born after 1911, which is doubtful according to your date of birth, your grandmother's maiden name would be on the birth certificate. This is your dad's marriage registration reference I assume your mother's maiden name was Miller? 1925September Quarter Arthur S Handley Miller Sculcoates 9d 514 If you happen to know your grandfather's christian name I may be able to help with that reference.
