hi
my sister in laws are in their 70s now on their birth certs will it be noted who was born 1st ? I do not suppose if it is not shown i will not be able to find out who was born 1st.

thanks

The time of a twin birth is normally recorded on the cert, which means buying both of them, of course.

Didn't their parents tell them?

Don't they have their birth certicates? I would have thought they would have needed them to receive pensions.

Researching:
Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)
