IN THE MATTER of the application for the Registration of the Birth of Irene GenevieveMcKinnon

Born at Sydney in the County of Cape Breton

That Irene GenevieveMcKinnon Whose Birth is sought to be registered was

born at Sydney Cape Breton County on November 10, 1920

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

Based on the Class (A) evidence, as I see making this application for myself, it has always been my understanding that November 10, 1920 is the actual date of my birth. Confusion may have occurred due to the fact that I was born at home and not in a hospital. Sacred Heart Records verify November 10, 1920

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.
