    If your Aunt is deceased you can post a photo or provide a web site to go look at the birth certificate and see what is wrong with it. Maybe that will help to find an answer to your question. Do you have both copies of the birth certificate with you, the original and the doctored one? It would be interesting to see both to see what is the issue. If she is still alive obviously we do not want to see any documents that contain her name, age, address etc. to keep her information private.

    Hi @Beulah849

    I recommend moving your question to the "General Questions" Category in the Community.

    I also suggest you provide more information. Anything more can help people in the Community provide better answers.

    Best wishes!

    @Beulah849 Can you give us more information to help us understand your question? Are you asking if you can post an image of the birth certificate in your Memory Gallery? Or did you find a problem with the indexing on a particular image? Or is it something else?

    I was thinking of posting the doctored birth certificate to demonstrate that my great aunt had to lie about her age to get work. So it would need some explanation with it.

    Would there still be the 110 year rule on the aunt's birth certificate?

    If you can post the information safely from the living people's privacy perspective, maybe put the certificate and your description together in a Word document and post a PDF of that to Memories instead of just the image?
