	Hi Wendy, I know that the GRO in uk supplies overseas certs. Look under Research on the home page:- http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/ Regards Ann

	Wendy Try novascotiagenealogy(.)com, this is the official BMD site for the area. Their birth records start at 1864 though, but I don't know if that's all they have or if they're still working on getting their information on line. Might be best if you contact them. Email copies are $9.95, paper copies are $19.95 (Canadian funds). Good luck! Brenda

Member Since: August 2003 Posts: 45 Send Message	I have traced a possible family member back to 1857 in Nova Scotia. I would like to get his brith certificate. The only way I know of finding out his parents names. Can anyone tell me how I can get the certificate and how much it costs. Thanks for any help Wendy
