Hi Kim I emailed the India Office last night and had a reply tonight. The cost is down to £18 per cert, presumably because I have all the details for what I want. I couldn't find any sort of order form / secure payment site on their website, so have emailed him back...will let you know what he says. Time to bite the bullet I think as I really need to know whats on the marriage certs. ******** OK just had reply from India Office...they do not have a secure site for payment but you can send them a cheque. It might pay you to email them and see what they say about your certs best of luck, Sylvia |

Thank you both for your help. Sylvia, Please let me know how you get on, I have 4 marriages that I would like the certs for. I also visited the site and found the cost scary. Kim |

How did you manage that Jim? Looking at their website the cost of £30 popped up for overseas search and cert !!!!! I emailed them last night as I have the entries from FIBIS and am holding my breath that it really won't cost that much as I have 2 that I need. Sylvia in NZ |

Try the Office of Indian and Oriental Collections at the British Library (Google OIOC) They were very helpful to me, and free, too. |

Is it possible to obtain copies of marriages certificates when couples were married in India and recorded on the Bengal Marr, Index? If so, how and where? I have several ancestors listed. Thank you |
