Births, Marriages and Deaths rcords
« on: Friday 08 July 05 11:01 BST (UK) »

Can anyone advise me how to obtain copies of bmd records at a cheaper rate than through scotlandspeople who charge £10 each.

Thank you.

Thank you for the very quick reply, Audrey.

I would be after quite a number: can you tell me about bvri.

One example would be Robert Murray born in Garvock in 1832 to James Murray and Jean (Jane) Christie.

Cheers

No connection with my line, I'm afraid.

I've been fairly successful at tracing back to the mid-18th century, but it's the copies of the records that I'm after.

BVRI?

The BVRI is the British Isles Vital Records Index and can be bought through the LDS Church for US$20.  It might be worthwhile checking to see if there are many records in your relevant County though first, (there are few in mine so I have been deliberating whether to buy a copy) as you may pay your money and find that you don't get as much help as you anticipated.

Anyway, that explains BVRI.  Hope that helped. Smiley
