Find Ancestors

many thanks for your help. i hope i have more success later on. are these certs available on line or are they posted out?

Hi Tracey,

They will be posted out to you...hopefully within 7 days.

You cant see any certs, you have to buy each one
You have to pay by credit card on line. Go to GRO.gov.uk and follow the instruction to Order on line, write down the information from here and fill in the application form, This always seems to take several tries, so dont give up .
I think you have to register first. Write down the numbers and letters exactly
if its a little "a "dont put a capital "A "

Each certificate costs £7 and takes 1 to 2 weeks to come by post.

Dont go mad ordering everything , a marriage cert will give you their fathers names and jobs, where they live and witnesses.

A birth cert with name both parents and mothers maiden name, and a death cert will give the cause of death and the informant, not always a relative.

mny thanks for that i will try, so i take it its my best option to go further in the tree then?

can any one find the full census of my grandfather Harold Gibson. looking for his fathers details, and possible parents of his mother~?

The last census is 1901 the next one wont be ready for a few years.

The best thing to do is but the marriage cert that will give both great grand fathers and hopefull get you back into the range of the censuses

betty gibson born 1918 i cnat find nothing on her, she seems to be the only one in my tree that does not show up in any census, or other info out there, was just wondering what happened to her

nudge to the post directly above

This is betty's birth reg details , she will not show on any census as you can only see them upto 1901. if you want to know if she married you woul have to go through the whole of the bmd page by page.
regards
Tracy
