What this is:

Transcript of a birth certificate, that of a G-grandparent, I believe.

Record retrieved from GRO's book for Middlesex, District Hackney, Sub-district Hackney.

• When/ where born: 25 June 1861, 2 Oakfield Road Clapton
• Name: Julia Catherine
• Sex: Girl
• Name of father: Charles Luke Tracy
• {Mother- certificate heading more complex}: Julia Peach Tracy, formerly Brodribb
• Occupation of father: Merchant
• SIGNATURE {my emphasis}... father: C.L.Tracy, Father, 2 Oakfield Road Clapton
• When registered 6 August 1861
• Signature of registrar: {not very clear! Surname "Jeffray"?}

That's the entry in full. The year might be in some doubt, but the certified copy confirms 1861, not 1869, which the manuscript could be mis-read as.

This document from TW, 22Aug03... and fully processed into my system in 2007?! Lucky these people aren't going anywhere! Thank you, T!

N.B.: The order of both her names, and those of her father appear differently in other documents relating to other events in their lives.... or as mistakes by other researchers.

No "e" in Tracy

Note: Born, if not at "home", at least at where father was staying.
