Hi Ronnie.
Im in NZ too. The ref no's you have are incomplete. You need the year and which qt and district to order the certs online from GRO.

William Sutcliffe born 1929 June qt Burnley mother Morris. Gro ref no 8e 236.
What year was Joan born and where did you get the ref no for their births. Im trying to establish when your grandparents might have married. I have checked 1921-1930 without success. However some qt's are missing

Did your grandparents,parents emigrate or was it only you?. If anyone died in Britain and you know around when that will help.
