Can any one help please with this birth record please
« on: Monday 11 September 17 14:32 BST (UK) »
Hello, I am rubbish at these things. This is the birth record of my great grandmother.
Can anyone read what it says? I know her name was Amelia Henderson Brand, I think she was born 21st November 1881. But I can't read anything else, or who her parents were, where they were and date married.

Any help would be most welcome, thanks

I am having trouble uploading it, will try again, it says it is too big, but i don't know how to down size it. Can I send it to someone via private message on here ? Hopefully it will upload.

We are not allowed to load the whole certificate.  Have you tried cropping a small part of it
