adoption

[v.a.t.]

help please . Dose anyone know if when you were adopted in the early 1950's if you were then re registered on the oficial register with your new name and same D.O.B as born with or a different D.O.B or if you were just registered on adoption register and still on oficial birth register as what name you were given by blood parents ! (not sure if this makes sence ) !!!! .........

All I can say is, my wife was registered as usual, with her biological parents names.
She was then re-registered with her adopted parents names, using the same birth date. This was in 1963.
