I haven't looked at this bit of OH's tree for a while and I have notes saying that the images of William's birth registration and burial are on BMD Registers but that I have not viewed them yet. I have viewed the marriage image but there are no witnesses' names. I know there are quite a few public trees with William and Mary on them but I want to make sure I don't go along the wrong track!

Ooh, I had 5 credits left on BMD Registers so have viewed the birth image:
William the son of John Glaister of old Malborah which Ann his wife bare unto him was Borne the 2th day of the 4th month in the year 1733.

Hmm, so that would be the 2nd of June.
