There is no birth register for either Leslie Nelson or George Nelson in Births. SA Births. ( SAGHS) with father James Nelson. That I can find.   Maybe someone can , hopefully.    Dalek.

 I have tried obtaining a birth certificate from SA BDM. On Leslie Nelson. (  son of James Nelson)  could t get past the date of birth.  Said invalid date.  I have no other information on  day or month only 1899. South Australia.   If it rejects the birth date. What next please.   Dalek

Thank you Majm. I realised after I sent that post  that I had his DOB in a file which I’d forgotten.  That date was given to me by a relative.   Think I need a new brain. This ones wearing out.  I do apologise ..but thank you for your advise.  Dalek. 🙄🥴

Not a good time after lockdown for six months to concentrate on dates etc.  best I recover and start again at a later date.  Everyone at Rootschat have been very helpful.  I thank everyone who have helped me.   I won’t shut down this post. Not yet.  Hopefully after a break I will try again.  Sincerely.  Dalek.  Xx
