I have just started tracing my family tree and was having problems I have form using BMD found the year my grandfather was born in and the month but is there anyway of finding out the exact date of birth other than ordering a copy of the birth certificate, thanks for your help ;o)

Samantha, What you see isn't the month, it's the quarter. March is Jan-March, June is April-June, and so on. I think you have to order the certificate for the date of birth or try the IGI search on www.familysearch(.)org Crista
