No, not with you at all, sorry.

Can you use an example with fictitious names to make it easy to follow, using (married name), (maiden name) or whatever in brackets  ???

As I mentioned, have you checked the index to see if other surnames have been indexed which don't necessarily show on the baby's BC as the/a surname?

Jane Smith - daughter of Diane Jones and David Smith born 1890. David Smith son of Enid Janice Smith

Diane left David and set up home with Ian Black 1900

Jane gives birth to daughter in 1908 and calls her Enid Janice Black.

OK now :) :)

on 1908 birth cert Jane's name is given as Jane Black - then address - then baby's name in full

Jane's birth father is still alive in 1908

If Jane has given her surname as Black with no maiden surname or previous surname or other then Black is the surname the baby would be named automatically.

If the father of an illegitimate child is not present at the registration of the child then his name cannot be entered as he needs to be there to verify he's the father by signing his name which he obviously wasn't.
