How much are copy Birth/Marriage/Death Certificates

[crazydaizy]

I know I can obtain them from the Registry Office in the area where the person was born/married/died.

But is there a central location I can get them from?

At the moment I believe they are £9.

A lot of money if you want a few Certificates.

Any chance of getting them cheaper, or having a deal for buying so many?

You can get them from the General Register Office (GRO) http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Governmentcitizensandrights/Registeringlifeevents/Birthmarriageanddeathcertificates/DG_175628

Cost is £9.25 each - no discounts!!

I believe that local Register Offices have now put their cost up to £10.00, usually plus postage.  GRO still charge £9.25 with no postage charge.

If you are lucky, Ancestry has the parish registers for some areas on-line -- might save sending for a few marriage certificates

Hi,

I've found some Glamorgan parish registers on FindMyPast.

Mine are mostly around West Bromwich

FreeReg (.org.uk) has West Bromwich PR's?

Not quite sure how it works.  It just appears to be baptism, marriage and burial records.

I've done a search of "my" John Henry Bell (1938-1999 and married 1958 in West Bromwich) but nothing happens
