Q1. What is a GRO index reference, and where can I find it?

If you are going to be doing family history research, you will find the GRO Indexes an important resource. A complete set of GRO Indexes are available to view in microfiche format at:

The Library of Birmingham
Bridgend Local and Family History Centre
City of Westminster Archives Centre
Manchester City Library (unavailable until Spring 2014 when the indexes will return to Manchester Central Library)
Newcastle City Library
Plymouth Central Library and
The British Library

The indexes are available for searching by the public, but the records themselves are not available for scrutiny and information from the entry can only be provided in the form of a certificate. There is no charge for searching the indexes.

You can't I am afraid

If you know where someone died you can apply at the local records office for the death cert but it's not online

Hi does anyone know a stan douglas he was born in dalkeith but has lived in kent and london mostly he was also in the royal navy a long time ago. i believe he was born about 1934 ish i have lost touch with him and would like to know if he is still around. He plays the guitar and has worked as a chef and a scaffolder. If anyone knows about him could you please get in touch. If anyone is visiting Kew records office could you look up a death for him as I have been told he died approx 2007 but the informant is not reliable. thankyou.
