I have been away from the computer for some months now due to illness followed by a major op. I am now trying to pick up the threads of research but I am stumped - what has happened to the website where one could look up births, marriages and deaths and then order certificates from the Family Record Office? I have been on the Family Record Office website but cannot get into start looking. Any help would be appreciated. |

This is the link to the GRO where you can order certs if that is what you mean, but for lookups it is as above, www.1837online(.)com http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificate/index.asp#0 Certs are £7 each. Sam |

The info from Sam is still relevant, even after this length of time and the GRO process is fairly easy, especially if you have the reference numbers required. |

www*Ancestry*com is another website you want for looking up free births, deaths, marriages or www* rootsweb*com(instead of stars put dots ). It is well worth having a subscription to Ancestry as there are so many records on there and there are some special trial offers going. Good luck! M |

if you google Cheshire BMD you can also see if the county that you are looking for is there - some counties have bmds and you can down load the form with which to apply for a cert. |
