Hi Hilary
seeing that this topic is about B.M.D records i will use this one . All the B.M.D indexes for wallasey are in book form in the library,very handy. I had a quick look at it but i don't know how recent the indexes are.I will be going to the library this week. Would you like me to have a look for the birth and marriage reference number for Wendy Davies so you can send for the certificates.And the death one for Winifred cant remember the year you settled on.It must be on the other topic.If you want me to do this post on this board

Birth Wendy Davies approx year
Marriage of same     Approx year
Death of Winifred Davies     then year. 

Celia

P.S Davies is a common name i noticed there a a few burials in Christ church Barnston in Wirral.Would any of your family be buried there?

  Hi Celia -- more questions !.
     Where can I find Baptism records ? Do I go to an actual church and ask ? Do they keep them there ?
    Also I've been on the Family History site and when I try to look up addresses on the 1901 census they ALWAYS reply  - no results found.  What's the best way of looking at census records ?

One question at a time please  . I think peter and others have answered most of your questions. I asked you some time ago what was you location.By location it means .Surrey England.or Perth Australia, not you address.You location is sometimes needed to advise on where you can go.Some things as said ,you have to do yourself.until you reach a certain year like 1910.There are no late records available because those people will or might be still living. The records you want wont be freely available for another forty years To find Births,Marriages,or Deaths. for the years you want. You have go to the reference library as i said before.and look through the fiches if you haven't done this before there will be help on hand . It will take some  time and a few visits,but that is what doing your family tree is all about. So what is your location please.

Hello  Again Hilary
You Live in Cheshire so a visit to the library is what you have to do.If this is not possible . Do one of the recommended things above,when you find the correct years you want. you can then send for your certificate's. Good Luck, let us know how you get on.

Hilary i forgot to say that not all libraries (the locals ones)have the full Saint Catherines index for B.M.D. The Large reference libraries in each city have them. ? I know liverpool does not sure about the other cities. I was told most local libries only have the index up to 1950/60. They get two more years at intervals.
So phone around.

Hello Hilary
I did as i promised have a look in the B.M.D registration index book.For the area you want but all of the index for Wallasey & Birkenhead, are 1800.Anything in the 1800 is easy to look up but after that its harder sorry
