I thought so too but I am not in UK but have used this service and it is very good
Especially if you phone and explain what's required and why

If Cinirel would really like to have it within two weeks this may make it possible


You could also see if he was christened and what was on this record

Hi

Yes he married Ruby and died in1983 - they do take 3 to 4 weeks, if you look on the GRO website that's is what yey advise (this is how long the sons marriage certificate took) - they do, do an express service but was hoping someone may have access to the information I require (funds are limited due to daughters wedding)

Thanks

I don't normally have a problem with the GRO and get the certificate in 7-10 days unless Who do you think you are is on the tv.

GRO website says this for standard certificates (not priority)
Q1. When will my certificate be despatched?
When you place your order online, the estimated date of despatch will be displayed in the basket summary. Please note - this is not the date that you will receive the certificate. The despatch date is the date that it will be posted out from GRO.

The target dates for despatch are shown below

Standard Service   Despatch target once order received   
Full or short certificate with GRO Index supplied    £9.25   Four working days   
Full or short certificate without GRO index           £9.25   Fifteen working days

I do appreciate that you are trying not to spend the pennies though  ;D

 :-\ :-\ :-\

This is driving me crazy.

If only the marriage cert gave his father's name as Peter....

Peter DARROCH on the British Army Pension Records
children are listed on
image 9274 George Douglas born January 30...?

GRO Regimental Birth Indices   
GEORGE D Darroch
Birth 1906 Brighton
Regiment   Army Hospital & Medical Corps

I find it a bit difficult to believe that there were 2 George Douglas DARROCHs born in Sussex in 1906.

The family are in Scotland in 1911. I could only do a short search and George is listed as born 1906.

Maureen ???

Well-I finally understand. That's not your George.

Your George was born in Scotland in 1906.

Check on Scotlands People.
