Hiya Wishes,

What area did the certificate relate to?

Trystan

[wishes40]

the reference was on a baptism in 1867 and marriage in 1841 & 1890
any help in where to get these would be appreciated

Hi Wishes,

They sound like parish records, where in the country do they relate to?

Was the reference on a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) website (Familysearch)?
If so you order the film through the LDS.
If the film was mentioned on an individual's research then the film may have to be purchased through the relevant county record office.

If you give the name or location of the parish then we might be able to direct you to the best location.
As with most questions in genealogy much depends on details such as location.
Cheers
Guy

the information that i have was through ancestry.
I have Saint Martin In the Fields, Westminster - marriage 1890 between Thomas Christopher Bodger and Elizabeth Mitchell
St Peter, Wisbech, Cambridgeshire - marriage between William Bodger and Martha Pridmore  3 April 1864 and
Terrington St Clement, Norfolk - baptism for Thomas Christopher Bodger 10 Feb 1867

If you can point me in the right direction that would be great, thanks

To order certificates, do so through the General Register Office (GRO):
http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/default.asp

The cost is £9.25 per certificate.

You will need Year, Quarter, District, Volume no, and Page no.


The film numbers you have are FHL Film Numbers, and relate (I think) to  films held by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, aka Mormons.

You can order these films at your local LDS church, for viewing there.

Alternatively, look them up on FamilySearch?


NB The Source Info for that 1890 marriage says:

Ancestry.com. England, Select Marriages, 1538–1973 [database on-line]. Provo, UT, USA: Ancestry.com Operations, Inc., 2014.
Original data: England, Marriages, 1538–1973. Salt Lake City, Utah: FamilySearch, 2013.

Butting in, I wonder if we could go through this step-by-step

So there are two records on FamilySearch for the Wisbech Pridmore marriage with the same reference but in different record sets

M13850-5 , System Origin: England-ODM ,  GS Film number: 1040590
M13850-5 , System Origin: England-EASy , GS Film number: 1040590

So do we now we go to an LDS centre, give them the reference to the film, they order it and we come back another time to see it? Or is it orderable in advance? Or available on demand at the centre?
