Joan, Guy Etchells has taken on the task of trying to get the registration document data released early, with partial success.

I think you will find that any info that would be found in any files relating to The National Registration numbers, thats if files exist, will be subject to the 100 year closure rule, so not in the public domain

These numbers were those on a persons Identity Card issued in the early days of WW2.
I have 6 of these cards, 4 of my own family and 2 of others of persons not in my family, so i would love to be able to find info.
