I pay £8.50 to the GRO for the certificates I order, always delivered within a couple of weeks; so what do you get for £7? Lilac.

I am researching Rev. William Gresley 1801-1876, one time Prebendary of Lichfield Cathedral. I can find no mention of his wife, Ann (Mary?) nee Scott Barker of Lichfield after the deaths of their first 6 children (of 9). Does anyone have any knowledge of her please? William became the first vicar of All Saints, Maidenhead in 1857, but his wife did not come with him; his surviving 3 children died at All Saints.

1881 census says My grandfather, William Humphries, was born in Oldbury, Worcs 1872. But I can find no registration of this. Is it posible that Oldbury was a sub section of another town, where he would have been registered?
