Just use what you have:
Births Jun 1904
Salmon Kathleen Mary Leicester 7a 329

http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/

I'm sure there's something to click on there specifying that you DO have the GRO refs.
No need for exact birth dates.

I feel really cheeky for asking as I have had so much help with members of this family. Thomas Miller married Kathleen Mary Salmon b. 1904 Leicester. I do not know her exact date of birth, only the quarter April - June
so I can not order her birth cert.to get the name of her parents. I can not find her on the 1911 census.
Any suggestion please?
Many thanks
Heather

I am really struggling with this family & would appreciate any help.It is only with your help that I have managed to get this far so thank you everone.
I have managed to establish that Thomas Miller & Emma Hanson were the parents of Charles & that Thomas's father was William Miller b. 1801 Pontefract & his mother was Mercy b. 1809 Pontefract. I got this info from the 1841 census but I am unable to find any other records including death or marriage.
Any info would really help
Thanks

Please can I ask for your help again in trying to find more info on this family. Thanks to your previous help,I now have the birth certificate for Thomas Miller & it states his father as Charles Miller not Thomas as I previously thought. His mother was Emma Wilkinson. In 1902 the family were living in Ivanhoe St Leicester & Charles was employed as a railway plate layer. Other than tthis, I have no further info. I am unable to find a marriage for Charles & Emma & I can not find them on the 1901 census.I am not sure where to go from here.
As always, I would appreciate any help.

Glitter Baby, I understand that all of the Miller males were connected to the shoe trade but to be honest, I don't have anything concrete to go on

Thanks Andy I will check it out. At least then I can get a birth cert for him which will give me a lead for his father.

Just because the son was born in Leicester does not mean the father was also

Any idea of occupation of Thomas senior?

I presume age for Thomas senior is an estimate
