use the link that both mgnv and I gave you. It may look slightly different but just takes you into a different point of the site. Mine should take you to the list of churches transcribed. Just copy & paste the link into your address line |

Many pre-1911 births on Lancsbmd have MMN transcribed........and many pre-1911 marriages have spouse's surname.................worth remembering! |

when you say you have looked on family search did you mean the general one or the special Lancashire (mainly Manchester) one - different site entirely |

Try googling registration districts for chorlton and salford, their should, hopefully, be email addresses for register offices for both. |

I sent an email to the local register office when I wanted to just verify that a baby, whose birth and death registration was within a short time of each other, was a member of my family; the staff were very helpful and quick in sending confirmation. |
