Thank you all for this information It was on Joseph Watt..birth cert Gerard St it says his mother was called Amy Elms father is correct and we know they lived in Gerard St..How can such a mistake be made..that's why I needed to see the baptism record..

Thanks Colette

I'm assuming it says Amy Watt nee Elms .

Curious.

I could half understand the double N to be read as an M... but Elms ???

Also the couple's ages vary wildly from 1901 to 1911
