the december quarter i believe covers october november and december so it may well be that she was born in september but not registered until after the end of the month |

Thanks Sarah,The dec would prob have been when the birth was registered then? |

Yes, births are recorded in the Quarter they were registered so if she was born in Sept, probably registered in Oct, being the Quarter of Oct/Nov/Dec. The Quarters are titled March, June, September and December. Sarah x |
