Family historians are pretty single-minded. They think only of GRO certs
as genealogical tools, not the legal documents they really are. These
documents prove a person's identity for either modern or historical
legal reasons. They can't just be farmed out to the genealogical version
of Asda.
Most of the ones I've seen specifically state that they are not proof of
identity. They can, however, be used as proof of descent.
I assume that sports governing bodies use them to determine
qualification for national teams. In football, this can depend on
having a grandparent born in a country.
