DON'T order from any site apart from the GRO. Certs from there cost £9.25. You can order directly from the registrars but that can be more difficult if you're not in the UK.

Other sites just rip you off.

Ouch! :o Looks like I am one of the ones who just got ripped off! It really looked legit. Everything I tried to type in to research how to order one... came up with this site or one like it. This one 'looked' official, but then again... they also, had links to genealogy researchers, so I guess that should have been my first clue! I hope that I get what I ordered.   :'(

Well.... at least I didn't order both items. Next comes the Will...

Thank you for the warning!!  :)

Bow,

Would love to see if there is any connection somewhere long the line. I will print off your post and look up to see if I can find anything that connects, as well. You probably know much better than I do, what localities are near others.

Afraid that I don't know about Ann Watkins, nee Parry, family and wether she had a sister, Louise.  John Watkins was born in Glynfach, marrying Ann who already had an illegal. Daughter.  John James ran the Bush Pub, Abertillery, where he died in 1951.  Mand
