The GRO site:
https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/c...xes_search.asp Also Ancestry and Findmypast. And FamilySearch. And some of the local BMD sites.

Now completely lost. This man is still alive so won’t post name. I have his birthdate according to him, 1926.
I have him on FreeBMD and Ancestry but not on GRO, although his older brother is on GRO. He is my son in laws grandfather and trying to get back from him. I’ve told them they will need to buy his birth cert but how do they get it if it isn’t on GRO. Or am I blind? This man was born April 1926. His late brother, Charles EATON, born 1925 is on GRO with MMN Moore. My man is on FreeBMD same MMN. There is also a few other siblings but not sure of their names and old age and forgetfulness has impeded the search. My man has a middle name that fits well with a EATON family I found but my man says that is not his father’s name and I’m stuck. So…how do I order a birth cert I can’t find on GRO?

I can see him on Free BMD so I assume he is mistranscribed on the GRO
Using phonetically similar names does not cough him up I would go on the GRO site, state that you know the index reference, and request the certificate using the information on Free BMD because the GRO just askes for the name, year, quarter, district volume and page, and all that is in Free BMD
