Sometimes entries were missed from the GRO index. It might be worth trying local registrar offices.

You don't need the cert as you do have his birth date and his parents names. It would be nice to have the birth cert but if its not available you do have his info .

Sylvia,

Thanks for your replys... there were a few babies born to the Grices that died just after birth... indeed Augusta did a little bit after being christened.

I really feel like banging my head against a brick wall.. lol.... cannot go any further on my tree without a cert.

I wonder ?????????????



I just looked at baptisms on ancestry


a apparent sister Augusta was baptised within 3 weeks of her birth in 1897

England & Wales Christening Records, 1530-1906 about Augusta Grice

Name: Augusta Grice
Gender: Female
Birth Date: 12 Mar 1897
Christening Date: 28 Mar 1897
Christening Place: Bristol, Gloucestershire, England
Age at Christening: 0
Father's Name: John Grice
Mother's Name: Augusta


Abraham was baptised 2 years after his birth ........


I wonder if he was a sick baby, and they were too busy looking after him to register his birth?

Or if the record somehow did not get transferred to GRO (not unknown!)?

Or has been badly mangled in transcription??

Certainly a mystery

Shirley Report 16 Feb 2012 22:36

Glitter baby,

This is him...Was also known as Albert Abraham Grice.... Have got the WW1 Records... also his marriage cert and death cert.

What I cant understand is that the record shows on Family org but no where else. This is definitly him as he was baptised in the church that his siblings all were.
