According to Genuki Houghton le Springs registers are in Sunderland and Durham Central Districts and Hartlepoo is in Hartlepool district I know this isn`t much help but if I find anything else will write it here. Mary If you go into Purchase of Certificates then click registration ~Service then Searching family History then General information There is a list of places in each of the regions served.

Hi,Mary, My cert. was from the county council site,and certainly was not a slow delivery!

This site is the county site not to be confused with the Durhamrecords on line site. You can search and buy certificates but they are slow deliveries found my Grandfather and his sister but the rest are all in Northumberland can anyone come up with the same thing in Northumberland? Mary
