The Common Room / Re: Why no mother's name on birth certificate?

Hi NicDaw

Welcome to Rootschat  ;D

A shorth form birth cert only has the child's name, date of birth and town or county of birth.

The usual bigger sized cert has the full details.

If the short form cert does not match up with an entry in the GRO birth index, this can infer an adoption has taken place but will require further research. Some entries are known to be missing or badly transcribed.
