Lisa,

Those are GRO refs, and the registers are not open to the public.

You would need to buy the certificates. Quote the year in your order too.

Hi Lisa

Please add an area to your profile, so I don't know if you are in the UK or not   ???

If you are then it's easy, just call the Bridgend Registry Office on 01656 642391 and, if you know who you think the parents are they will tell you if you are right or wrong, and they will arrange with you to supply you with the certificates.

If you are not in the UK you can write them a letter, for the same result - or PM me.

It's that easy

Hi Lisa,

No prob, just click on your name on you last post here, it'll bring you to a page, on the left hand side look for "Rootschat Profile Information" click on it and fill in your area, remember to save the setting and bingo.  Remember not to be too specific, an area will do.

Hope you are able to ring Bridgend, I think you'll find them helpful.  Please do let me know how you get on with them. 

All best
Wendi

I will give them a call on Monday and post back.

It's so hard to do research on my James family as there are so many in Bridgend.

Kind regards Lisa
