Hi I was aware of these issues - first checked my wonderful Irish map (which has even the smallest villages noted); then googled, but nothing came up - hence my seeking help from the list. I was hoping that someone may have encountered this place. I've had one Death Certificate which has 7 errors on it......and when pointed out these mistakes (which I proved by producing the original birth/marriage and death certificates of the deceased and her parents) to the Reg./Gen Dept was told that they had to stay as that's what they had written into their records.....although they would note my letter with the certificate. Didn't offer to give amend or give me another certificate...AND that's how we begin to have so many errors in our Family History!
