It would normally not be registered as if the birth was after the marriage. No reg as Howard. And no reg with just mother's name. And no declaration to correct an entry so they cheated somehow ?

I mean they registered the birth as if they were married.

There are several births before the marriage. Or as you say something wrong somewhere??

Was Julia's maiden name Taylor ?

Born abt 1832.

NSW Bap TAYLOR JULIA 185/1833 V1833185 129 ELIZABETH

Being a volume past 123 I can't look that up at a local library.

No marriage in NSW index 1849 - 1862 for a Julia Taylor.
