Is this a Birth Certificate?

The certificate I have is an original document (sorry about the scanning - Photobucket keeps throwing me out!)

If I send off for a copy of the certificate, will I get any more information than is shown here? - Is it because it is Welsh?

Thanks

Thanks Velma

I've tried scanning it again - looks a bit better now, I think - it's just a long way down! LOL

So I guess it's worth sending for a copy then

That is a short certificate. Both my parents had them and when I got the full certificate I got parents names, and place of birth.

Thank you Wendy, and Velma

Nothing to do Welshness then

It's what they used to issue when the birth was registered if the parents didn't want to pay for a full certificate, before the short certificate was introduced. It was accepted instead of an actual birth certificate for many purposes.

Thank you Kite
