Born at Woods Harbour in the County of Shelburne

That Clarence AstronBodge Whose Birth is sought to be registered was

born at Woods Harbour Shelburne County on October 29, 1920

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

I remember when my parents and I lived on Argyle Street, Yarmouth when I started going to South End School. I was 6 years old, going on 7 years. I always celebrated my birthday on October 29th. My parents told me I was born at Woods Harbour in our house and we moved to Yarmouth when I was about 1 year old. In 1940, the Government did a census. I was registered at Yarmouth post office.

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.
