Hi I am searching for a birth entry for an Arthur? FORSYTH, son of Arthur Dudley FORSYTH and Eileen Louise nee MATTHEWS. Probably in British Columbia. Not sure what year but after 1933. I am sorry I don't have a lot of information to go on. I have been told that his christian name was Ross Arthur but on his fathers death certificate it states his name as Arthur. My email address is lindawalch@bigpond.com Thank you. Linda

Hi Linda - Birth Registrations - are public record to 1903.- anyone can view - transcribe or copy this information to this date. At one time births became Public Record in the 101st year after the event - this has now been extended to the 121st year after the event. Anything after that - is Private Information. only available to a very few - The individual, the parents, the spouse or common law spouse - and children. lawyer * not even a very close older sister can obtain this information [from experience], If it can be proven that this person - has been deceased - for 20 + years - the birth registration - may be made available - to some. This would be from the Govt of B.C. Vital Statistics Dept - the cost in the $50 + Cndn. The Govt Vital Statistics office will only search a few years either side of a given year. The son is shown as Arthur on the Death Registration? He is the informant? -what is the address shown? Searching the Online White Pages Directory My Telus.com http://www.mytelus.com for Ross FORSYTH - finds 4 listings for R. FORSYTH in British Columbia., Burnaby, North Vancouver,Smithers B.C and Victoria B.C There is 1 listing for Arthur FORSYTH - in British Columbia - in Delta B.C Am Obituary - if one was published -it may show names and locations of other family members Cheers, Stella At 10:14 PM 11/3/2006, Linda Walch wrote: >Hi >I am searching for a birth entry for an Arthur?
