I in fact have a short birth certificate for myself, nothing to hide (I think). Am I correct in thinking they're no longer available? In response to: As well as the Short Certificate you may come across a 'Certificate of Registry of Birth' which only gives the name of the child and dates of birth and registration together with the Registration District. The one I have is from 1910 and in this case there was nothing to hide. Mike __________________________ In response to: Not only the use of a fictitious address to conceal a birth in a 'Workhouse' but often a 'Short birth Certificate' would be obtained. The 'Short Certificate' only states:- Name and Surname of child........ Sex............. Date of Birth............ Place of Birth, as Registration District and Sub-district........... Registrars name signature and date registered..... Not even Mother or Fathers name appears on this type of certificate. If you have one of these for a family member you can still obtain a 'Full Certificate' if you so wish. It will give you Mothers name, also maiden name and occupation, actual birth address would still more than likely be fictitious. Wills.
