I currently have a sister in Rochdale briefly - is there anywhere original certs can be viewed for free - does anyone know?

Thanks

Hi

Seems my grandfather was a bit of a drunken vagabond who kept my grandmother barefoot and pregnant!

There's much debate in my immediate family (in Australia) about the actual location of place of birth for my mother (who died young in 1982).

Seems my grandparents kept moving about so I am wondering which hospitals my mother and her siblings may have been born in.

Here are the FREEBMD entries for my mother (who I have 'bolded') and her siblings;

Births Sep 1929   Tomany, Mary C - Davidson,  Fylde,  8e, 810.
Births Sep 1930  Tomany    ^(*)    Davidson    Fylde    8e   831    
Births Dec 1931 Tomany    ^(*)    Davidson    Oldham    8d   966   
Births Mar 1933  Tomany    ^(*)    Davidson    Oldham    8d   1032   
Births Jun 1934   Tomany    ^(*)    Davidson    Manchester S.    8d   320   
Births Sep 1935   Tomany    ^(*)    Davidson    Manchester S.    8d   290    
Births Sep 1937  Tomany    ^(*)    Davidson    Manchester N.    8d   487   

Or indeed were children of the poor born at home usually - before the introduction of the NHS?

Any thoughts and assistance appreciated,

Thanks - Jaahda

Interesting Thanks to both of you.

I think will have to check out further.

From my understanding it is possible to view original certificates at certain places? If this is true do you's have any clues where this could be done (I might have to try twisting one of my UK nieces arms) :-)

Thanks

Yes - fingers crossed - thanks Marie :-)

I've scoured lots n lots n lots of records - but have never managed to find him anywhere.

Can anyone help?

Thanks
