Bob

Date and place of birth; childs forename(s); sex of child; father's name; mother's name and maiden name (usually shown as "formerly nnnn"); fathers occupation; signature, description (relationship) and address of informant; date registered and signature of Registrar.

The registration would be under the father's surname unless he isn't named on the cert then it would be under the mother's name.

This is for English and Welsh certs - I believe Scottish ones have more info.

Date & place of birth
Child's name
Sex
Name & surname of Dad (in most cases)
Nane & surname of mum plus maiden name
Occupation of Dad
Signature & address od person who registered birth
Date of registration

Can anyone tell me what information is on a birth certificate, e.g, parents names, parents dates of birth? etc. Thankyou.
