Civil registration only became compulsory on Island 1877/8 - before this date there was a relatively little used voluntary scheme - in 1911 the Rolls Office took a copy of all extant parish registers - if you request a birth certificate from general registry Douglas for before 1877 all you generally get is a transcipt of the baptismal register which info Brian has supplied.
