Shirley~I,m getting the hang of it Report 20 Jan 2017 11:03

When i was doing hubbies probate I needed full certs for his birth .our marriage ,my birth

Whilst I have the originals of the marriage and my birth I only had the short version of hubbies birth

Photo copies were not acceptable to people like private pension , avc pensions etc and I didn't want to part with the originals so I bought several certified copies from the gro

Emailed ones wouldn't have been acceptable either

Surname Fahse. Germany. Essex .South East London My avatar is one of our wedding photos of 1957

It might be used by Probate companies, but wouldn't help those who need a copy for identification purposes. It wouldn't be 'certified', would it?

Might be quick but ££££

Don't think I'll be using it.
