Please help me decipher my grandfather's birth cert
« on: Thursday 24 July 14 18:45 BST (UK) »
Hi,

I can't make out clearly what it says in the column "description and residence of informant"..

I can make out the father's name and his address but it says "as per" something and I don't know what the rest says.

Please can anyone help?

Events had to registered in the Registration District in which they had occurred. However the Registration Act states
Any person required by this Act to give information con­cerning a birth, who removes before such birth is registered out of the sub-district in which such birth has taken place, may, within three months after such birth, give the information by making and signing in the presence of the registrar of the sub-district in which he resides a declaration in writing of the particulars required to be registered concerning such birth; and such registrar ­on payment of the appointed fee shall receive and attest the declaration and send the same to the registrar of the sub-district in which the birth took place
