From a website I found when googling...... Caesar Augustus then decreed that a census be taken, for which everyone had to return to their town of origin. Joseph was a descendant of David, whose hometown was Bethlehem, so he and Mary went to Bethlehem to register . (Possibly, Joseph could have grown up in Bethlehem or have had relatives there as well.) While they were in Bethlehem, Jesus was born, presumably in a barn or animal shelter. |

Does anyone know - are look-ups £45 per address for this census, too? Because I am REALLY desperate for the information, REALLY desperate - but I want it to be free RIGHT NOW. OC |

Ithink it would be about about 35 Dinars...plus Taxes, after all, there was a shortfall on the day afterwards due to the infanticed after. Would there be certs for those? |

Yes, can someone track down the certs and get them for me, I have hit a brick wall and can't do anything till someone tells me what is on the certs. (What do you mean, say please? Why should I?) OC |

35 Dinars...plus Taxes? What's that in pounds? Or is it best to wait until Ancestry transcribes it? lol |

Purple, I hope you didn't choke on your chocolate. lol Your descendants researching their family tree would find your death certificate very odd! Hope you're live and kicking. Take care x Lesley |
