Hi Pauline, Can you give us a name? Also, it wouldn't have been a birth certificate in that year but a church baptism register. Do you have a copy of the original? Can you email it direct to me and I can see if I recognise the place? Regards .............

My great grandfather’s birth certificate from 1841 says ‘Bilenan near Geelong ’, so here's hoping. Regards from Pauline

Daryl, found your reference in the NLA: http://newspapers.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/2073763?searchTerm=moderator+geelong+euroa+palmer The corrected transcription reads "Mrs. A. C. Palmer, who is leaving Euroa for Geelong, has sold her residence, Hessle, for £1,600 to Mr. James Hoare. -The Moderator of the Presbyterian Church for Victoria (the Rev. J Crockett)accompanied by Mrs Crockett visited Euroa......" This is two separate items.
