Hi Rose,

The things I was/am confused about (that I should have made more clear, sorry) is that the volume I found is 6a and the one you found said 6d. I am guessing yours is correct?

Hi Kirsty,

I got it from Ancestry but Findmypast will have it too.

It's the same reference.

September is the quarter
6d is the volume
1569 is the page number

Hi again,

Can you please confirm where you found the marriage entry as I am having a hard time finding it anywhere and want to be doubley sure it's the correct certificate I am ordering :)

Thank you!

Ah ha, thank you!

Ok, Edith's first child would be a Neil Sambrooks. I don't have an exact date but it would be around 1936. I can confirm that though.

Thanks!

Sorry, I am sure this is a really stupid question but did you give me the reference? I am learning the ropes still :S

Yes, Edith's first child. Gives us a clue as to when to look for the marriage. Can be time consuming otherwise.

Hmm....also says it's costing me £10 per birth cert? Do you have any idea why that is?
