I don’t mean to be rude, but have you noticed that both the Kenyan doc and the Bomford doc do in fact have the identical
book 44B and page 5573 ?
And your telling me you can’t recall whether or not any aussie birth doc ever mentioned a book and a page. That’s cool.
I would think that it’s pretty important.
Everyone pretty much agrees that either the Kenyan doc was copied off the Aussie doc or the Aussie doc was copied off the Kenyan doc.
And you’re saying that the Aussies might not even use a book page system?
Well. It’s pretty clear then that the Aussie doc was copied off the Kenyan doc.
(Unless those Aussie docs with book and page can be “found”)
Yes, I do.
And your telling me you can’t recall whether or not any aussie birth doc ever mentioned a book and a page. That’s cool.
Correct. I would think that it’s pretty important.
I agree.

I'm still seeing some debate about that, but, yes, that seems likely to me.
And you’re saying that the Aussies might not even use a book page system?
I don't believe the state of Victoria does. I haven't seen any evidence that the states of New South Wales or Queensland do.
This doesn't tell us much at all about what the state of South Australia does.
Australia is a federation of states which while united in a Commonwealth has a constitution that still reserves a great deal of individual powers to the individual states (including the registration of births, deaths, and marriages). You cannot assume in Australia that practices followed in some states are automatically followed in other states. We have different rules on drivers licences, different road rules, different school systems, different health systems - and different ways of doing things. And these differences were even more pronounced in the past. South Australia may well have used a book referencing system - I haven't seen evidence one way or the other.
Well. It’s pretty clear then that the Aussie doc was copied off the Kenyan doc.
So a birth certificate that looks similar to a number of other available Australian birth certificates (even if not totally identical) is in your view more likely to be Kenyan than Australian? Personally, if one of the two is faked, I think it's far more likely it's the Kenyan one than the Australian one - it looks like an Australian birth certificate.
If somebody can produce a Kenyan certificate that looks similar, my view on that would change.
Well see #203....I think the aussie doc was copied....
