Hi,Sorry for the delay in replying.I put your request to one of my mailing lists and this was the reply. Sorry I can't be of any more help. Good luck in your search Bazzer

I am quoting from "Tracing your Ancestors in the Public Records Office" by Amanda Bevan

Page 40 3a.4. Adoptions. Before 1927 there was no official system of Adoption and it is usually extremely difficult to trace private arrangements. Some charities, such as Bernardos, arranged Adoptions and may conduct searches for a fee. Certificates of any Adoption in England & Wales since January 1927 may be obtained from the FRC. They show the date of the adoption, the name of the child adopted, and the full name and address of the adoptive parents. The FRC has booklets available at the downstairs enquiry desk on access to Birth Records. The adoption Contact Register and Information for Adopted Oeople and their Relatives.
