Was the time of birth only given on a birth Certificate if it was a multiple birth? Sue |

Thanks Margret, It is the first cert I have had with the time of birth on so I was not sure. No record of another childs birth or death so I would assume that the other child must have either been dead at birth or soon after. Sue |

Sometimes the time of birth didn't mean a multiple birth. Some Registrars were over-zealous. |

Christine, No not Scottish birth, Suffolk but it was because I saw that Scottish births had times that I wondered. Jill, I wish they were ALL over-zealous, I find it fascinating. Sue |

Margaret is correct about times when its twins. My twin boys have time of birth on their certificates. Gives the older by 9 mins one-up-man-ship! Viv |

Record for time between birth of twins is about 3 months and to make it worse one has one year on birth cert and the other has the next year! imagine future generations working that one out LOL!! |

Don't forget waht Jill said. Some registrars did put times on all births, so make sure your not looking for births that never happened. Bob |
