Manchester R O
« on: Monday 06 August 18 22:41 BST (UK) »
Hi
    I e mailed Manchester Register Office with a query in 1856
 their reply said, " I can't check for you because records of this age are held by the central library"
  I thought it sounded odd as I thought the register offices held on to their registers?

Seriously though - What kind of a query was it?

The reply came this morning.
To cut a long story short, three kids in the 1871 census aged 14, 11 and 10, the births registered in Manchester the two boys both in December 1856 but not twins as one is on page 160 and the other on page 181. The 11 year old supposed to be born in Hull 1859 but no registration there only the father's death in 1861. There is a baptism for one in Manchester but not the other two, it's strange. Can the pdf index be wrong?

It's not for me, a lady in USA paid a genealogist years ago to find her great grandad but couldn't do it because the 1881 census is wrong.
Frank Vernon aged 20 born Hull,  son in law of Mary Newton.
I found Mary Newton in 1891 and realised she was his mother so then got them in 1871
Mary Vernon with Isaac 14, Francis 11 and Sarah 10.
He is born Hull in all the census but  Isaac & Francis are both in 1856 mother's maiden name Hitchin. I've heard of late registration but not early ones!! Can't understand what's happened here.

You cannot have 2 brothers births registered in the same quarter of the same year and they are not twins

Only the 14yr old could have been born in 1856 - you say the others were 11 and 10 so their births would be several years later

so census, so we can look at that rather than try and interpret your interpretation.
