What is a GRO Index reference?
The index reference number is the code we allocate to every birth, marriage or death registered in England and Wales. It relates to the year, quarter, district, volume and page number.

The lower fees only apply where the exact GRO Index reference is supplied.

Are you sure you are looking at the correct site?
