Member Since: September 2005 Posts: 2 Send Message	Instead of a volume and page number against a birth I have found a message 'see M41'. What does this mean as I have found the birth of the same person but with two different surnames

	See M41 means See march Qtr 1941 Two surnames on birth reg means unmarried parents......and the later reg could mean they eventually married and re-registered the child to give it legitimacy
