Ivy, don't worry about the others on the page.

Manchester register office will have different register numbers which is why they could not issue you the certificate with the numbers 8d 127. 8d and 127 are reference numbers for obtaining the certificate from the General Register Office.

Deaths Jun 1873 (not 1863 as you said)   
Byron  Daniel  28  Manchester  8d 127    
Hagin  Maria  16  Manchester  8d 127   
Jepson  William  64  Oldham  8d 127   
Kerwin  Mary  37  Manchester  8d 127   
Larkin  Thomas  46  Manchester  8d 127   
Livesey  Ann  68  Manchester  8d 127   
McGloughlin  John  20  Manchester  8d 127   
Mosdell  James  13  Manchester  8d 127   
Vernon  Samuel George  62  Manchester  8d 127   
WROE  Frances  74  Manchester  8d 127   
WYNNE  Margaret  2  Manchester  8d 127

Byron  Daniel 
age: 28 
district: Manchester 
volume: 8d
page: 127

You can order the certificate here using your credit card:
http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/
You will need the district/volume and page numbers mentioned above.

Some information on what you might find on death certificates (ie not very much  ;)):

Good luck Ivy.  :) Just double check that you have numbers and spellings correct when you fill in the form, or they won't issue it.  ;)

Hi Ivy

The reference number to purchase the death certificate for Daniel Byron from the Manchester Registration Office is ANC/119/145  They should have no trouble finding it with this reference number. Source is LancashireBMD http://www.lancashirebmd.org.uk/
