Dea - a couple of years ago I sent a correction for the 1861 Scottish census to Ancestry. For parish # 169, they've transcribed the "Civil parish" as Aberlour, whereas it is Aberdour - just 1800+ mistranscriptions. They told me at the time they'ld put it on the pile and check it when they got round to it.

Sylvia - some people can't get a b.cert - if they weren't rego'ed at the time, and they can't locate a suitable informant 60 y later, then they can't get rego'ed. The requirement for a passport is citizenship, not having that of having a b.cert. Suppose someone wanted British a passport in say 1924. There would be plenty of people born in various parts of the Empire that would have difficulty producing a b.cert - Scotland only introduced civil registration in 1855, N. Ireland 1864, British subjects living in Canada's NWT were entitled to a British passport, but civil registration would only be introduced the year after they were born.

I was told he was born at home and never registered but I did put that he wasn't registered in my original post, he must have somehow got himself registered because they owned 2 house one here and 1 in spain so surely he would have had to prove citizenship or something

Looks like he may not have been registered . Your mum and her twin were done late so maybe they didnt register Victor and left too late as there was a fine for non or late registration

Never mind, don't get it - have coorected loads of census stuff but this is beyond me.
No matter!

No he only recently died

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

They only go up to 2006 on Ancestry

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

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

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

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??

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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
