In pursuing McStravicks who might be my ancestors, I have obtained birth certificate copies for some who do not appear to be direcxtly related:
James, born Apr 10, 1885 in Pyfer Hill, Armagh to Patrick, mother Mary Healy of Pyfer Hill
Charles, born Jan 22, 1867 in Tagnavin, Shankill, Armagh/Down to John, mother Catherine Lyness of Tagnavin
Bernard, born Oct 23, 1864 in Foundry Row, Ballymacarrett, Belfast to Thomas, mother Mary Brannigan, and Ellen, born Nov 24, 1866 to same parents (Informant for this birth was another Ellen McStravick, also of Foundry Row)
Alice, born May 20, 1864 in Darrytagh, Armagh to Bernard, mother Rosette Walsh/Welsh
Bernard, born Feb 28, 1866 in Darryclone, Lurgan, Antrim to Patrick, mother Isabella Graham
I would be happy to share these certificate copies with anyone interested
