Another question! Apart from the above mentioned amendment.

Under "Name, Surname and Maiden name of Mother" it says"

D****** Brennan LATE Johnson
Formerly Staples.

(Brennan being my husbands birth surname after the man who was later removed from the cert, Johnson being Mums first husbands surname, and Staples being Mums maiden name.)

In the margin it says " Change LATE to read OTHERWISE"

Can anyone explain why she would have put LATE - we know her first husband is still alive.
She was obviously calling herself Brennan too, when my husbands birth was registered.

MaryMc

Thanks, thought so.

It appears he was re-registered after that in the Mums surname - or rather the surname of her first husband - so I'm guessing she was still legally married to him although she hadn't' seen him for 16 years by that stage.

Thanks

MaryMc

Yes...

Mrs Bucket,

So to allow his name on the birth cert in the first place, he would have had to go with the Mum to register the birth - is that correct?

MaryMc

Thanks.

No they were not married at the time of birth (they in fact never did marry), although the Mum was using the Fathers surname at the time of registration.

I guess it has to be something like that.

Thanks!

MaryMc

Maybe they were not married at the time of the birth?.....He allowed his name to be entered onto the birth reg....


Maybe later on it was discovered that he was NOT the biological Father?........

I have a birth cert for my husband.
He was born in 1960. Both parents were named on the cert.

In 1971, both parents made some sort of "statutory declaration" and the Fathers name was removed from the cert.

Does anyone know what this means??

Thanks in advance
