Abnormality on Research Facility Birth record - Galway 1927

[Indiana.59]

I have a Galway birth 29 - 8 - 1927 - but at the bottom of the form I found this:

Date of birth registered 29 August 1927

SInithe ag/Signed By ?

Cláraitheor/Registrar ?

Clãraiodh I gCeantar an Chláraitheora / Registered in the Registrar's District - Galway No. 2

Limistéar an Phriomh-Chláraitheora / Superintendent Registrar's District - Galway

Cláraiodh i gCeantar/Registered in the County of Co. Galway

Data an Chlárücháin no Athchláraithe (más maidir) / Date of Registration or Re-registration (if applicable) 13 August 1927

The form was printed not hand wrote . . .

Any ideas why the date of registration at the bottom of form came up as 13 - 8 - 1927 and does not match the birthdate of 29 - 8 -1927

Many thanks in advance . . .

Because he wasn't registered on the day born!

Because he wasn't registered on the day born!

Does that mean he was born on the 13 Aug 1927 rather than the 29 - 8 - 1927

As his birthdate as the 29 - 8 - 1927 was used as his birthdate in other documents eg: and also on his death cert - strange . . . .

He can't have been registered before he was born....

The wording is very odd 'Date of birth registered'

What date does it give in the Date of Birth column?
What date does it give in the Date Registered column?

I wonder if the person who typed it up mis read the original which would have been hand written and the 13/8/1927 should have read 13/9/1927

Birth was up as 29 - 8 - 1927

Date registered 13 - 8 - 1927

I wonder if the person who typed it up misread the original which would have been handwritten and the 13/8/1927 should have read 13/9/1927

It is the nearest plausible reason I can think of Sinann - but I thought I would put it up to see if anyone could come up any other reason . . .

There are 16 days between 29 - 8 to the 13 - 9 - all would depend on - would this be the usual time in which to register a birth - I think so . . . 

His father was a farmer - maybe this was the regular time it takes to register a birth when you are a farmer . . .

Clerical errors are never a first - he he he . . . 

Cheers . . .

If that is the case then you need to scan/photocopy it and send to
