Trying to locate birth records

[Haysteph88]

Hi I am trying to locate birth records of  my great grandfather Albert Cook who was born on 3rd Dec 1897, lived in Salford, however can’t find any record of him on the birth index, is there any other way to locate him?

Thanks

Hello,
Do you have further details of him which you could cross reference? Do you have his mother’s maiden name?

http://www.lancashirebmd.org.uk/birthsearch.php

The above site shows
1897 Albert Cook Salford (Broughton)
1898 Albert Cook Salford (Pendleton)
1898 Albert Cook Salford (Regent Road)

GRO will show maiden names.

There are three Alberts in 1901 census who fit those three areas so hopefully one is yours.

His birth registration is probably in the first  quarter of 1898.

I didn't read the birthdate 

That reduces it to two - mother Jarvis or McGrane. You can cross reference siblings using mother’s name.
