Morning everyone,

I've just been on the freebmd website and found an entry for a marriage that I am interested in.  I decided to click on the red 'info' button at the end of the name and a new page opens up.  It says 'Add a Postem' where you can leave information.

Q: Can you enter the information from that particular certificate so that the next person looking at that name doesn't have to pay £7.00 for the information or is there some legal stuff that says you can't??

Thanks, Vanda

Hi there,

My GG Grandmother, Sarah Mason Smith was born in Halifax in 1844 (according to the 1851 & 1861 Census).  Her parents were John Smith & Dinah.

I have some information that says she was born 15 April 1844.  The same info says her husband was born on 29 SEP 1841.  This has come from someone in the family but I don't know who, (long story).  I have received her husbands birth certificate this morning which confirms that his date of birth is the same as the information I have (29 SEP 1841) so I am assuming Sarah's DOB is correct.  I have spent ages looking through the SCHI for Smith and cannot find her anywhere. 

My question is, if I wrote to the Registrar for Halifax and gave her/him the information I have, would they do a search for me

Thank you, Vanda

Hi there,

I sent for a 'Will' dated 16 SEPT 1867 a few weeks ago, they cashed my cheque on 22 March and I haven't received it yet - do you know if this is normal at the moment please

Thanks Vanda

Sorry, amended to say, I applied to the probate service using a form I downloaded from their website www.theprobateservice.gov.uk thanks
