I have just discovered that my grandfather was a twin

William was born at 11:00am and his sister Mary was born at 11:05am on 28th Jan 1888.
Both births were register 16th Feb M Quarter.
Sadly Mary died age 0 GRO Reference 1888 M Quarter

If she was still born, would her death have to be registered at the time?

How sad that they both died?

Thanks Jimmy, I can't stop wondering how long she lived. I think another certificate could be on the cards :think:
