Redundant BMD Certificates

Whilst doing some 'cleaning up' of my family tree files I came across some BMD certificates which I had sent off for to either prove or disprove a family relationship.

Is there a site where I can post details?

Having spent a not inconsiderable sum on these certificates I have no wish to destroy them if they could be of use to others.

Suggestions welcome

You could put postems on FreeBMD so that anyone searching on there would get all the details from your certificates - which would save them from buying them if they didn't want to.

Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

Thanks, all, I'll give them all a try.

Now, if only finding my grandfather's early life was so easy :-)
