AFFIDAVIT

IN THE MATTER of the application for the Registration of the Birth of Florence MaryFitzgerald

Born at Yarmouth in the County of Yarmouth

That Florence MaryFitzgerald Whose Birth is sought to be registered was

born at Yarmouth Yarmouth County on January 18, 1920

My knowledge of the fact and date of such Birth is based on the following Circumstances:

I am the sister of Florence Mary Fitzgerald and was approximately four years old when she was born and I [have no] recollection of the year she was born. I have been close to my sister all my life and she has always celebrated her birthday on the 18th of January of each year. For as long as I can remember. I have always been told that she was born in the year 1920 and have always taken it for granted that 1920 is the year of her birth.

Keyword Search looks for the "term" (one word or number works best) you type throughout the whole record. It is less accurate than the advanced search but it does let you search for age, religion, mother's maiden name, etc. if transcribed.
