  • Where is this Registration District Please

    I have found someone born during the September quarter of 1923 Registration District given as Newport Sh. Volume 6a

    Can anyone please tell me where this is. The rest of his brothers and sisters were born in Manchester. His parents were married in Manchester.

    Looking forward to hearing from you.
