I like that Piglet, my neighbour has a similar story. They lived in a very rural area and the midwife who delivered him said she would register the birth. It was to be Michael but as she cycled into Cambridge she thought she liked Harold better so she registered him in that name! |

Nothing unusual about this, It denotes the capacity in which the informant was acting.i.e. the owner or occupier of the house or institution. The description 'Grandfather' isn't a valid option.....! |

A recently acquired copy of an 1882 birth certificate shows no father named in the appropriate column, although the informant is the father. |
