I've just read your other messge further down the page...is the birth your looking for in the UK or outside? The above link is only for England and Wales, i'm not sure about Australia (if thats where you are looking) You could try this website http://www.naa.gov.au/publications/fact_sheets/fs89.html It may point you in the right direction Mhairi

This is the Victoria BMD site: http://online.justice.vic.gov.au/bdm/home but the online birth index only goes up to 1906. If you read the information on their site, it should tell you whether you can apply for a 1960-ish cert.
