Hi Donna, If you are adopted you are originally registered under your 'birth name' when your adoption goes through a second certficate is issued, and this normally states taken from an extract of the Registrars Office, this is the adoption book where all adoption details are entered. There is never an entry under births in your adopted name only ever under your birth name. Hope you understand all this. Sheila |

Hi, I am adopted and when I went to FRC found my adoption in a separate place from the main certificates. I do not have a post adoption birth certificate but have a certificate of adoption instead. Sam |
