Hi ya, Yes you should be able to do it that way. I got my grandads cert the same way, I phoned my local records office where he was born, payed over the phone by debit card and collected it the same day. Different Counties may have different policies though, so it is worth checking. Good luck Julie |

Records Offices don't have birth certificates, you need the Register Office for Pontypridd. Sam x |
