righty ho.....
this is me grandpa's family....
my great grandparents Wm and Mary married in 1899......
they had 10 children in total......
4 of which were born illegitimately....
so...
on A's birth cert it states illegitimate but gives both parents names
on B's birth cert it states illegitimate but only gives mothers name
on C and D's certs it states illegitimate but gives both parents names...
what reasons would there be that on B's birth the father's name wasnt given?
Could it just have been that he wasn't at the registrar's with Mary to register the birth and therefore his name wasnt allowed to be included cos they were unmarried??
I just thought it was odd that the other children had both parents names on their certs....
