Hello, I would like to thank everyone for their help and advice. All I can add is from = family story and marriage certificate, "Robert was born in Anglesey North Wales." No parents on marriage certificate.. sorry. He married Rachel Lewis in 1851. Robert was an engine driver in Wales and also when he came to Australia. On the marriage certificate dated 1851, Robert's age is 38 years so that means he was born in 1813 + or - 1 year. Above his age there is 5/13, does that mean 13th May 1813? I do not know. Wishful thinking I think. Robert is a brick wall I am trying knock down, brick by brick. Thank you again. Kind regards Anita in Australia ******************************** Hello, Can anyone please help me is getting a birth certificate?

Do not assume that all ages on marriage certificates are accurate. Of there was a disparity in ages, the older partner may well have knocked a few years off age, and, especially if not marrying with family witnesses, ladies below the age of 21 may have added a few years.
