The strange thing is there is no Mountain Street in Wellington, NZ!!!

According to her English marriage certificate she was born in London....

You already have this, I have just realised ??? Or do you?

I have my grandmothers birth certificate and I have a question about it.

She was born 1918 in St Pancras, London.

Under Name, Surname of mother it says: Dorothy May Barnes of no occupation, 44 Mountain Street, Wellington.

Under Signature and residence of informant it says: D.M Barnes 19 Argyle Street, St Pancras.

Is it normal to have 2 different addresses?

Also how could I find out if nana was adopted by her biological father(she was illegitimate).

Failing my suggestion for the NZ address: have you tried contacting the Wellington City Council re an Historic Map look up: http://wellington.govt.nz/your-council/archives/whats-in-the-archives/historic-thomas-ward-maps?

Wouldn't have thought they would change the name of a street next to a Mountain though ??? :)
