I am trying to obtain a birth certificate or better still copy of original registration for genealogy information only. Have birth date and place 08 Jan 1934, Warmbad, Karas, Namibia.
We are trying to find out who our great grandfathers and his wife's families are and where they originated from. Any tips would be greatly received!  Thanks in advance.  Suzy.

Has anyone else had problems with the way the NSW registrar of Bmd's  provide certificates?

I have had two very clear transcription errors, on trying to get it resolved have been directed all over the shop with no response.

Error on marriage has Bride grooms' family name  ....Eggens... his father's with... Eggins...
[usual way]  the information is irregular as well [I am very familiar with contents of certificates however this different!

I am still trying to track down where the originals are held with no luck as they are Wesleyans.

Error on a death, registration year 1893, received the certificate and states death year is now 1873!! Not as purchased 1893. Burial is 1893, clearly transcription error.

I rang immediately on receival of this certificate and pointed out the error, was informed it is a legal document that can never be changed??
I said it is clearly clerical error by your transcribers and the register should check and have it corrected [I am not criticizing transcribers as I know how easy and how hard it is to notice these errors] .... was then told madam the death would have been registered 20 years later? yet burial was 1893 as is the registration year on the Bmd index.

Why on earth are they typing these certificates? surely it is more practicable and even cheaper doing copies like they used in past years and most other registers use. Victoria could teach them a thing or too.

I waited 7 weeks for all but 1 of these 5 certificates... they happily take the money then forget you exist... I don't think I would have received them even now... if I hadn't rung and complained... so am not happy!  My rant for the day!

Any clues on where the original Wesleyan Records would be held?

I have a Death certificate stating the person was buried at Fidler's Point near Taree.
 I cannot find any information on Fidler's Point, let alone a burial ground/Cemetery.  I am wondering could it be a lonely grave?
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks Kaz

Is there any chance of getting the interment papers for the burial of Martha Gray aged 5 in the Brimington Parish Derbyshire?   Burial number 180        burial date 10 April 1827.
Martha’s mother had predeceased her in Feb 1826....  I am speculating that she was being cared for by her relatives at Brimington, and may give me a clue as to what family name I could follow up with.
Her Mother Martha Holmes b circa 1780 calculated from her burial record of age 45….is the daughter of Bartholomew Holmes of Brimington [as stated on baptism of her first-born child 1802] 
I just keep hitting brick walls trying to trace my Holm/ Holme / Holmes family of Brimington. They are my 3 x Great Grandparents.
I have temporary attached Martha Holmes b c1780 to…
 Bartholomew Holmes and Ann Bingham …..married 1864…. St Mary & All Saints Church, Chesterfield, Derbyshire.
 There are other trees online that have this couple linked as well and because of a 16 year break from the marriage to c 1780  Martha’s supposed birth not sure the dates do not really correlate for any of us.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Kaz
