Rarely birth record would contain back reference to a marriage or a death record. Few of the reasons are:
– Father died before the birth of a child, so his death reference is given as a proof of legitimacy (which is usually the case).
– Child is born less than 9 months after marriage took place, so marriage reference is given. In one example marriage took place only a month earlier. It is impossible to say anything definite about the paternity in such cases.
