Re your question...
What information do Birth/Death/Marriage Certificates contain?
A Pre 1997 Birth cert consists of date and place of birth, child's forename/s, fathers name, address and occupation, mothers name and maiden surname, name and address of person who registered the birth.
A Post 1997 Birth cert consists of date and place of birth, child's forename/s, child's surname, fathers name, address, occupation and former surnames (if any), mothers name, address, occupation and former surnames (if any), name and address of person who registered the birth.
A Death Cert consists of deceased's name, date and place of death, marital condition, occupation, age at last birthday, cause of death, name and address of person who registered the death.
A pre 1957 Marriage cert consists of date and place of marriage, both spouses age, name, marital condition, occupation and pre-marriage address and their fathers names and occupations.
A post 1957 Marriage cert consists of date and place of marriage, both spouses age, name, marital condition, occupation and pre-marriage address, their parents names and the spouses future
