I don't want to disillusion you from the start, but I think you may struggle.

this page may give you some pointers, but unless you know what he changed his name to, I fear you will be fighting a losing battle.

The thing is if you want to hide yourself by a name change, it is very easy to do in the UK.

It may help if you know what area he is in, but even that is possibly going to be a long shot, simply because people move about so much these days

I do not think that such a web site exists. I do not know under what circumstances the Salvation Army may help. It may be worth a quick phone call.

if he has changed his name without a deed poll registeration, then it will be almost impossible to find out.
afaik there is no database in the uk with that sort of info. i doubt even the government has one.
even the child benefit office cannot get that info off their own database, without a huge cost implication!

Hi,
Births, marriages and deaths are date ordered, but once a person changes their name only government agencies maintain comprehensive lists of previous names.
These are not in the public domain, or should not be!
