Personally I put them in the Notes section for the individual or marriage. I think you could, if you wanted, incorporate them in the 'sources' bit, but as each one would be slightly different, you would end up with an amazing number of sources. I prefer to just specify 'GRO index' as a source (until I actually get the certificate, when I change the source to Birth, Marriage or Death Cert.), and then put the actual reference in Notes. I agree, it would be nice to have a more specific spot. Tina
