Newcastle upon Tyne birth certificates

[hols83]

Hello all,

I am trying to get a hold of a birth certain for Olga Esther Rita Buch (maybe spelt buck) born in Newcastle upon Tyne in 1896  to Sarah jane and Ferdinand Noel. I would ideally like to get this from the local council register rather than through London (costs!!!) but I have tried the Newcastle council website and it seems to only allow access to records up to 1870, anyone got any ideas?

I'm probably being a moron and have missed something.
Please help.

It will only cost you £9-25 if you order it through the GRO at Southport

Hi

You can apply direct to Newcastle using this online form

https://eforms.newcastle.gov.uk/default.aspx/RenderForm/?F.Name=W4X3DQ9eU5V&HideToolbar=1

I can't see anywhere that the dates are restricted.  It costs £9 (keeps my Council Tax down  )

Hi Hols 83

Just wondered why you wanted to buy the birth certificate when
you have already found out who the parents were.
On the certificate if will only give the date of birth, parents
names and Mothers maiden name and where they were
living at the time.
I did have a look at the 1901 census as I was interested in
the name and noticed that Frederick was born in Copenhagen
Denmark, hence the Olga and Buch. Frederick was a Coal and Exporters Manager.

They say curiosity killed the cat lol.

Hi Sandy
I was about to ask the same question having found the family in 1901 census.
As Buck.
Perhaps our poster doesn't have this info?

Whilst a certificate will only cost 9.00 from Newcastle Registrars, how much are the P & P.  

Many charge 50p for this.

So GRO at a basic 9.25 no hidden extras is a much better bet.

But never order via a 3rd party.  This is a rip-off service.  Even Ancestry & Genes etc., charge way over the top if you order certificates via them.

So ONLY ever order via GRO (Southport, nowhere official in London to order certs from these days) or if absolutely necessary the local registrars, but some do not offer this service it all depends on how busy they are.

Hi all,
Thanks for  the 1901 census info, I was aware of the name spelling change and have seen the census info before, some of the family actually ended up as Bushe,( apparently Buch sounding too German during the war)
Quick question if I order it from the official government gro, it's asking for the district, i take it this is just Newcastle?or would it be Newcastle upon Tyne, also the ref 10b is this the volume?

Thanks
