I have found several errors where people have given wrong information when they regstered a birth. The errors made were wrong date of the parents marriage entered on two birth registrations.

How do you go about telling either Scotlands People or the local office where the births were registered that there has been a mistake made on these records.

Has anyone ever done this?

Hi Claire,

Yes I have had a few RCE's on records I have searched on Scotlands People as well, you have to pay a few credits to see it as you said. I just wondered how you can add an RCE though because my grandparents have put the wrong year they married on both their childrens birth registrations.
