the details you have Name: Aaron Adam Watkiss Year of Registration: 1843 Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar DISTRICT: Hackney County: Greater London, London, Middlesex Volume: 3 Page: 90 ( you use this reference to buy the cert - you can't look at the details online ( unfortunatly ) registration started in 1837...so certificates are available after this date ( if the event was registered ) you can order the cert from www.gro.gov.uk as you have the ref. numbers etc it will only cost £7. Esta

Certificates start in July 1837. As yours is after this, it should be available. You can search on FreeBMD for a transcribed record, or trawl the BMD index on Ancestry (free) for the original index image. PS - what's 390? Oh nevermind!
