My father in law was born on a Wednesday in June in 1911,in Ennis Ireland.
His father only went into town occasionally.He went in to register the birth and quite a few people bought him a drink to wet the baby's head ya know.
He then went to the Ennis register office and told them that the wife had a baby boy last Wednesday,or was it the one before,ah who cares (they were Irish ya see)
So his birth was registered under one date,but the baptism by their local priest who was advised by his wife (not the drunk husband) of the correct date,had a completely different date of birth a week before!
