Yeah ,had no trouble ordering it,but they replied with " Not the right Mary Coleman as her father was not John" and they said had checked a few years either side of that date to find the right one too.....but to no avail.

My credit card has not been debited yet.....so maybe they aren't going to  ;D

I ordered three separate certificates, and all three arrived within a week - I filled in the form that was on the website, and put a cover sheet with the whole of the reference that I got from the database (minus the bits that are purely for the LDS), then faxed it.

I wish that it went beyond 1922 for the North!
