Go to GRO.gov.uk and follow the procedure for ordering on line, write all the numbers exactly as you see them and your creditcard. It takes a couple of tries first time, if you get it all right they send an email with a ref , number and it takes about a week by post.

Researching:
For better results please give all the details ,name, date place as you can {pictures by me }
