BMD Certificates
« on: Tuesday 27 August 19 10:18 BST (UK) »
Hello everyone,
I have bought a number of BMD Certificates that are most definitely of persons that are not part of my family.
I am quite willing to send them to persons who believe they are part of theirs.
Is there any way of facilitating this on this site.
There are a few UK ones and one Irish BMD.
Thank you,
Claire

Is the Irish one online yet? if so, no need to pass it on unless you happen to stumble across a relative of that person. Note: they are in the process of adding more to the site.

I think you can add notes to FreeBMD for English & Welsh ones but I'm sure someone else will be able to confirm or correct that.

Good idea to post there also, goldie61, but FreeBMD might have wider audience.

Some of us on here post the details from all of our certificates on freebmd as a postem.  As aghadowey mentions it reaches a wider audience.

Find the entry on freebmd that relates to the certificate you have - click the spectacles logo alongside it.
That opens a page 'Entry information' .
A few lines down on the left hand side it has -
You may add a postem to this entry
