Find Ancestors

I have had a hell of a job trying to find birth records for my mother, Jaqueline Anne Haynes born 23 Oct 1941 then I discovered that they have miss printed her mothers maiden name as Marrington when it is in fact Harrington, is there any way this can be corrected.
I have found all her brothers and sisters apart from her twin sister and also a brother who wasn't registered although he lived well into his 70's

If it was on Freebmd then you can contact them and they will (eventually) correct it. However, if it said Marrington on the actual register then this cannot be changed.

Where did you find the record ? On Ancestry you can do corrections,

Is it correct on the actual birth certificate if not then it cant be altered now

Do you mean correction on Freebmd? It's a bit of a fiddle but it can be done.
Click on the little specs, then you click on the bit that says 'If you have a correction to this entry, please click here'.
Be sure to skim through the whole page, there is a box to tick at the end of one of the lines, about hallfway down. It won't accept if you don't do this.

Shirley, how do you correct MMN on Ancestry? I have only ever seen person's surname come up.

If unable to change as register says marrington, just add a postem.

Jan

looks like its just a transcription error as the page type is very blurred. You can click add alternative information and the do the correction which will take time to show on the record. This is on the Ancestry record

Strange - I have both her and her sister on FreeBMD with the correct details??

Shirley, I am sure it's not possible to correct anything on Ancestry but the surname! Please tell me if I am being a numpty.
Jan

I think you 'are' being a numpty Jan - I am sure you can put a correction on anything on Ancestry, though it is rather fiddly and takes a long time to be added.

Dea x :-D

brummiejan You click on add alternative info ,then reason and click maiden name then put the explanation in the reason or source of your update,I think it shows eventually as a black pen thingy by the side of the name which peeps can click on to see the info

Its very blurred on the actual typed GRO page so is a transcription error on Ancestry, If you would like me to add the right surname I will do so . :-D

Many thanks to you all, I will look it up on free bmd now, I'm sure its ancestry, or it may even be on here as as I said I have found all others apart from mum and jill

Sylvia do you want us to look for the brother? if so give his name and dob or birth year and area if poss.

Ok I'm being a numpty now, I have put in her details on free bmd and its coming up no results please help

Dea has posted her reccord along with sister Jill see her posting above.

As you will see from the reference I have given above, it is registered in the March quarter of 1942!

Are you just searching on 1941??

its Victor Haynes c1939 and he was born in london, most likely Hendon or Wilesdon, many thanks

If she was born Oct 1941 she should be in the Dec qtr however looks like it was a late registration and they were reg possibly Jan1942 so come under the Mar qrtr 1942

Thankyou, I found it, i remembered after mum said that grandad didn't register them til the following year

You say Victor lived into his 70, so have you located his death record?

They only go up to 2006 on Ancestry
