You can only be certain when you have brought together as many of the pieces of the jigsaw as possible and found no mis-matches. E.g. your subject's birth certificate and marriage certificate, parents' marriage certificate, do ages and geographical locations agree, do censuses make sense, etc, etc? |

Kathleen Contact Liverpool Register Office and give them all the details you have. They will then check the records and if they find a match they will send you the certificate. Lynne |
