I have been trying all variations of the name 'Mary Ann Nelthorp' born 1888 in Tadcaster, but I cannot find it on the GRO. I need to check the birth mother I have is correct (Cuthbert). Any help appreciated.
Sarah. It is showing up on Free bmd as Nelthorpe but not on Gro.
On Gro search page at the bottom is a link which allows you to point out errors.
If you tell them there that it is on Free bmd and give the gro ref from Free bmd they should check their records and correct it. You can retrospectively check the progress of your complaint.

Hi Sarah, Her birth shows up on ancestry 3q 1888 Tadcaster ref: 9c page 771. There is a marriage in Tadcaster 3q 1887 Thomas Nelthorpe to Georgie Emily Cuthburt. Regards Barry
Hi Sarah,
Just to add to what other people have said. The GRO will fix things if you provide the evidence i.e. on FreeBMD etc or an obvious transcription error.
I reported a misprint of "Semuel" Hague should be "Lemuel" Hague at the end of August and it has been fixed - not sure when that happened though. This week I've reported another one William "Bartow" death should be William "Barton".
