Robert Allen If you know your Grandparents dates of birth, you can apply for copies of their birth certificates. Try the National Statistics Office (Tel: 0870 243 7788) who are very helpful. Those certificates will then tell you the names of your GGrandparents. You can then try to find your GGrandparents marriage certificates, on which will be their ages on marriage, and then you will hopefully be able to find a record of their birth, etc, etc. Click on the "Links" icon in the left margin to find the names of some great websites for tracing your family. Good luck! Julia Jones Always input relatives surnames at birth; so use maiden names for female family members.
