Evidence and reasoning
Why is Sarah's birth date 8 September?
Entry 370 on the original register page reads 8 September 1889; Elizabeth's separate entry 371 reads 9 September.
Evidence and qualifications · 1 record
The two consecutive original entries distinguish the dates and both name the same parents and Tamlaght place.
| Record | What it says | Why it matters | Limitation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sarah Taylor Glasgow civil birth 8 September 1889 · Tamlaght, Kilrea registration district | Entry 370 records Sarah Taylor Glasgow at Tamlaght on 8 September 1889. | Direct registered birth date and parent statement. | The return records Daniel's residence as New York but does not identify his later US record. |
Limitations. This corrects Sarah's date only; it does not decide how the consecutive-day births should be medically described.
Next evidence. No further source is needed for the registered date.
