	Ill bump up Tips for New Members for you - will give you all the basics you need for now. Im afraid you dont "find" certs, you have to buy them.

	It still costs £7 to order a certificate - if you are asked for more, check that you have said 'yes' to the question asking if you have the GRO reference
	Researching: Liverpool (Cartwright, Chambers, Miller), Todmorden (Sutcliffe, Mallison), Abergavenny (Watkins, Prosser)
