Exact birth date
« on: Sunday 01 January 23 10:06 GMT (UK) »
Probably a daft question this but is there another research source other than the birth certificate or GRO to find an exact birth date please? I know the month and year but would like to find out the precise day of a deceased relative.

Maybe on the Death Certificate?
But that largely depends on when the death occurred.

1939 National Register will also show birth date.

Perhaps we can help if you give us the details you have of the deceased person

Some baptismal records have full birthdate but this is entirely dependant on whether the child was baptised & whether it was the policy of that particular church to include that info

His name was Thomas Leonard Ward born in Birmingham, UK in 1899 and died in January 1939 but there is no death certificate for him.
