The Common Room / birth date v registration date 1881
« on: Sunday 19 February 12 14:45 GMT (UK) »
I have a birth certificate for Janetta b 22/9/81 in Bradford it shows no fathers details
Her mother is shown as Emma Jeffries now the wife of John William Bogg,
The birth was registered on 28/1/1882 and interestingly Emma and John were married on 15/1/1882.
Is it usual for the birth to be registered so long after the birth?
I was also wondering if Emma and John went to the trouble of getting married why John wasn't shown as Janetta's father? presumably because he wasn't but if he wasn't why wait so long?
Am I reading more into this than I should?
Any thoughts appreciated.

Thanks to all for the fantastic quick responses,
Pearson is definately Hannah's maiden name as I have the birth certificate for her son Michael who was my gt gt grandfather.
Paul you quoted the 1881 census "shows the couple and their family in Bradford (In 1871 they are in Barnsley) and Michael's birthplace is given as "Ireland Queens CO" which is now known as County Laois." can I ask where you found that as the record I have for the 1881 census (ancestry.co.uk) only shows him as born in Ireland, the place of birth you quote ties in with the place of birth given to the Michael Dunn I found in the 1851 census in Rotherham - which surely must be the same one.
Anyways I will order the Sheffield marriage certificate just to try and tie it all up.
Thanks for all your help

Yorkshire (West Riding) / Dunn/Pearson - Rotherham 1851

My first post - please be gentle
I’ve traced my Michael Dunn b 1831 in Ireland who married Hannah Pearson b.1840 Makersley, Yorks to the 1861 census when they were living in Rotherham with Hannah’s mother and two children. Trying to find Michael in 1851 census I have found two Michael Dunns both same yob and b in Ireland, one in Rotherham and one in Bradford.The only reason I'm only considering the one in Bradford is because I know that is where they all ended up in later life. Could it have been where he originally landed when came to England (another Dunn shown living at the same address maybe a brother?). If it is the Rotherham Michael Dunn it shows the actual place of birth in Ireland, so I’m hoping it is that one!.
As an alternative search I have tried to find the marriage record of Michael and Hannah but can find no record for Michael and have found two records for Hannah in Rotherham Q1 J-M 9c 553 in 1867 and A-J 9c 483 in 1862.
Can anyone else advise how I can take this forward, short of ordering two marriage certificates?
Thanks
