How would I find out which Records Office would deal with certificates for the St Pancras area, London? May be a bit late but can't get my head round where to go! Thanks Gill

http://www.camden.gov.uk/ccm/content/contacts/council-contacts/community-and-living/contact-register-office-services.en go to this page, and you'll get the details above. But you can click on the link 'Online: send camden register office your enquiry ' and you can send them an enquiry. Be warned serval London offices won't deal with family history certs, but I have no knowledge if Camden is one of these.
