Find Ancestors

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.

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.

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

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.

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
