I want to obtain a copy of my fathers birth certificate. Is it possible to do this by email and if so could some-one let me know the address. I no longer reside in the UK and would appreciate address for births/marriages/deaths for UK.

You can order certificates from the GRO online at this address:-

www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates

If you have the GRO reference numbers (from Ancestry or FreeBMD etc) then the certificates cost £7. Without the reference numbers it costs more.
