It appears not.
My grandmother's birth certificate clearly has her mother's maiden name as "Walters" with an "l". I searched and searched in vain for this woman until casalguidi suggested it might be "Waters" instead and found me all sorts of useful info on a Waters family that I have now proof are indeed the right family and my great grandma was Waters not Walters. Then we come to great grandad, he is William Johnson on the birth certificate and 1901 census, my Georgina Waters, was left money by her grandad Waters when she was Georgina Johnson. But the only marriage we can find is between a Georgina waters and a William Johnston with a "t". I have sent for it anyway, because I have every faith this is the right couple but William has acquired a "t".
If you are not getting anywhere with the info on the certificate, think outside the box - it can pay dividends.
