Birth Certificates

Birth Certificate Heading

The heading of the birth certificate will list the registration district (and any sub-district which applies) along with the county name. Many large registration districts have smaller sub-districts, a largely rural area may have several smaller sub-districts based around strategic towns. If you have an ancestor born in a small rural village don't be too suprised to find the birth registered in a district some distance away.
