You should be able to order the certificate in the normal way from the GRO at:

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

Using the option to order an overseas certificate.

I must admit that the last time I did it I ordered at the counter in St Catherines House.

Do I need a reference number for ordering? Oh, and would the birth have been registered in 1849 or 1850??  ???  I really don't know!!

I think the above is the reference number that you require.

G'day all,
I have a similar problem to soulsister. My 3xGreatgrandmother was Mary Lloyd and according to census data she was born some time around 1818 in Gibraltar (although in various census her birth place was also recorded as "Cibraltar",Jamaica and "On the sea").
She married Samuel Shipton in Horsley, Gloucestershire in 1837 and the marriage certificate records her Father as John Lloyd and the occupation is difficult to read but may be Soldier.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how I find out who John Lloyd was? I've already tried Findmypast and the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity in Gibraltar.
Cheers

"My great grandfather was born in La Linia 10Th Feb 1887 "

La Linea is over the border in Spain... so it is there you need to look.

I'll be looking for a Leveson Tilbrook born there about 1849. I know I'm going to need his marriage cert before I can find anything more out about him, but have just spent a small fortune on certs this week before I discovered this gentleman! I was just wondering where I would need to look.

Take it I'll have a better chance of finding him if his father was in the Armed-Forces then!?
