Oh no, I'll have to keep looking on the census, going archive next week hopefully they will have info

no Thomas you would have to buy it :-(

I've only found birth registers which are not much use to me, is there any way of finding a birth certificate? :-)

I am going to the library anyway, I will post if I find anything :-)

Well that sounds about right he was born 20 December interesting fact that his wife Laura's birthday was 3 days after

got a dog waiting to go out so will look back at the post later

If you remember I explained this was the quarter it was registered so if he was born late Dec. his parents may not have registered it until Jan. so it would be registered in the Jan- March qtr. The cert will show the actual date of birth

Thank you patchem I will check one of the kids, also jan write his birthday as march, I thought it was December.

sorry Thomas I was just meaning a birth cert that would be a right one so as not to waste money in ending up with one that might not be your family.
William Henry birth posted above is the index needed to get a cert. from GRO that I gave you the link for . You can get the certs from the reg. office for Sheffield if that is easier but the vol. and page numbers are not their entry numbers you would need to ask them for birth William Proctor March quarter 1862

Jan probably means to get a certificate that you are sure is for one of the children, so that you do not get a 'wrong' one and start looking for the wrong parents.

You have to apply for the birth certificates:

No jan I don't think that has been posted, by any chance would that be the birth register, and I still don't underhand what a safe birth certificate is.

perhaps this has already been posted

Births Mar 1862
PROCTOR William Henry Sheffield 9c 332

If you haven't got a childs birth cert it might be an idea to get a "safe" one i.e perhaps Emily if you think that is the right one to see what details it gives for dad and mothers maiden name

I will be going to the library today so I will try and find a birth certificate for William Henry, patchem, I think September 1890 is the correct Emily :-)

Jan,
I suggested he was James Procter for birth reg.

Added:
And one of these could be Ada
