Woodburn - child Help Needed
« on: Monday 05 July 10 21:24 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I hope this is in the right section.

I have been looking into my family tree for quite some time and I have found a child in the 1901 census who is identified as a grandchild of Daniel Batiste (DOB 1830), Her name is Lizzy Woodburn born in Ireland in 1893 (I have since found out that it was the Belfast area). No parents are listed at the address she is at.

I have no idea how to find a birth certificate for her or any further information....can anyone point me in the right direction?

Any help would be great. Thank you!  :)

You can get a copy of the birth certificate from the NI General Register Office www.groni.gov.uk , or alternatively some of the pay to view sites may also be able to give you the info, for a fee (which may be less than the GRO fee).

Thank you!

I'll contact them and see if they can help. I was just a bit worried about the date of birth as I wasn't sure when the records ran from.

Any more info would be great ...Thank you  :)

This looks like the details you'll need to order the birth certificate (civil registration of births started in 1864)-
Lizzie WOODBURN
birth April/June 1892 Belfast registration district
volume 1 page 429

WOW!

Thank you so much for your help, I was really starting to think I was banging my head against a wall with her.

I'm sure I'll be back with more questions soon.

Thank you!  :)
