Born in the 1st quarter, but could have been registered in the 2nd quarter. Worth a look ? |

Sharon Your best bet would be to order the cert, and see what it says. It could have been registered by someone who thought the mother's maiden name was davies, the index could be a mistranscription, as someone else said, that birth record might not be your grandmother, etc. Ony when you get to see it will it clear everything up (or indeed raise more questions...) |
