Finding the hospital or location of birth?

[ashjw]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to find where my mother was born in 1950, she has no idea and has no way to find out from living family anymore. I have found her birth register online but it only shows the district of birth - Cheltenham - any idea who to contact about further information?

Cheers,
Ash from Australia

Welcome to RootsChat!

That information will be on the Birth Certificate.
There is no way to look at the certificate - you must purchase a copy.

Cost is £9.25, including postage to anywhere in the world.

See: https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/

Would your mother not have a copy of her birth certificate somewhere - for emigration/immigration/pension, etc. purposes?

Thrice welcome to RootsChat.

My UK Passport shows the name of the Welsh Village I was born in (locates my birth place to one of 40 houses in 2 streets).

Are you using
https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/Login.asp

It allows you to order birth certificates for International delivery in about 15 days.

Do you have an Eng & Wales birth cert though?  I assume that the OP's mother would have one for various admin, etc. purposes, which was why I was querying the need to purchase another one.
I have mine safely filed away and it is of an older vintage than the OP's mother's

What Surname are we looking for?

Need to be careful as we are talking about a living person. If the parents are identified, so could Ash's mother.
