	Hi Paul, you can order BMDs from the GRO online at http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/default.asp If you have London ancestors or certain other areas it is always worth asking on the boards as some sites do have images of marriage and baptism records which can save you a bit of money on certs.

Member Since: July 2015 Posts: 5 Send Message	I have recently joined GR and have used the births, marriages and deaths databases to find records on my ancestors. I now have details of the District, a Volume, page and line number of these records. Am I able to obtain access to these records (eg. birth certificate) ? If so, please advise what the next step is ? Thanks in anticipation, Paul
