Interestingly also a Yahoo question by the same person(?)

And, unless SIR EDWARD F. LAVENDER (I need to learn how to increase the font, bold it and make it flash red)
has a relative on his father’s side who has the exact same job in Australia, then the Kenyan COLB is more authentic that the Aussie one.
I love the sleuthing skills of FR!
If accurate, an extremely important clue!
Ie: that there is a record of and E.F. Lavender who served as Registrar at that time in Kenya.
I was able to track down the person responsible for this post
“I asked a british history buff I know if he could find out who the colonial registrar was for Mombasa in 1961. He called me up a few minutes ago and said “Sir Edward F. Lavender Source(s): Kenya Dominion Record 4667 Australian library”
I called them on the phone and left a message I also sent email. We will see if she responds to my inquiries.
