Family History Beginners Board / How to order a Birth Certificate from the GRO England
« on: Thursday 20 September 18 03:52 BST (UK) »
Hi all...
This has probably been covered many, many time's before, so I apologise in advance for being a pain!!
However.. does anyone know how to order a Birth Certificate online when you don’t have the actual DOB for the eForm field on the (England / Wales) GRO website… I am trying to order a copy of a birth certificate for what I feel may be a relative born in 1971.. I can fill all the other fields in just not the DOB as I do not know it.
The thing is I know the GRO Index reference already from searching the registers, but it still wants to know an exact DOB as it is a required field. That is one of the reasons I want to get a copy of the birth certificate, because if I already knew that, I would probably be able to do more research without a copy of the birth certificate..
Any help much appreciated..
Thanks for looking...
