My guess would be if it wasn't on the Christening record then it's unlikely to be on the birth certificate but unless you purchase it you just won't know.

Thank you so much Neil & Jen,

Would I be able to find Thomas's Father, or is that a no no as his was not mentioned on the christening records

Thanks

Hi I am looking for any information on a Margaret Walby born c1819. I am also looking for her son Thomas Walby c 1852. They were both born in Westward. I have found Thomas's Christening record which says he was christened in Westward on 25 Nov 1852 and it only gave his mothers name, Margaret.There was no record of a father.

Can anyone please help with their whereabouts in1851 and 1861

Thanks
Elly
