This update includes many of the children that before now we have been unable to identify. Many will remember the days of trying to identify those missing children when the 1911 census was first released and indicated the number of children that the couples had and who many had died. Such a revelation at the time but also totally frustrating.
The recent release by the General Register Office of their own indexes to the births (1837-1916) and deaths (1837-1957) has meant that many of these have now been identified as well as enabling the correct birth registrations to be attributed for those with common names in the common Registration Districts.
However I have not been able to identify them all. Some are due to the fact that they appear to be illegitimate whereas others are due to the problem of common mothers maiden names and not being totally sure as to who belongs to who. I am back to 1880, having started in 1911 and of the 3,413 births I have been able to allocate all but 140 and I list below the ones that I cannot be sure of. They are listesd in surname order, then by year, quarter and first names. I have also included the mothers maiden name and thee registration districts in case they help.
So if you can identify one of these please let me know.
