This is not my family line at all, but about 30 years ago I found in my attic in Burnaby,BC, Canada an 'extract entry of birth' and have kept it ever since.I will try to type everything that is says:

This paper measure about 5 3/4" by 13" and is old, stained, dark grey in color and held together with tape, and is an official printed form with the details written in the appropriate spaces.I would like to find a good home for this document since it is not my family.Anyone recognize these names?
