I could but you would think that the boro would have had the right one ;;they have 2 listed but said the other one is 30 ;;;so bit mystery , and William had no daughter that would have been old enough to have registered it ;;

Babs I thought the extra £1 was for P&P, if your picking them up surely they can't charge more than £9 for them.

According to Guy (Etchells) Local RO's can't charge more than the statutory fee.

Was William living in Boro in 1901? Get the RO to check the address on the cert to see if it matches.

Jay they made me a bit m,ad today as they didnt really seem interested I took in copy of 1901 census with me to help them and that had the address wrote on it , she told me that they didnt need it and had my e-mail , was bit disapointed as they do know I spend quite some money in there but this was main registrar so didnt argue with her , it wasnt till I came home and got my copy of MFT mag that I saw on piece wrote in it that certs are £9-25 and felt bit cheated but I will question this when I'm back in hopefully later this week ;;

I'd definitely get it from the GRO because if it is the wrong one (i.e. a completely different age) you can tell them their register is wrong and ask for a refund!
