Hi All,



Here are a few useful websites for tracing your English and Welsh ancestors;



http://freebmd.rootsweb.com <http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/>



FreeBMD is an ongoing project, the aim of which is to transcribe the Civil
Registration index of births, marriages and deaths for England and Wales.
If you are tracing English and Welsh ancestors born between 1837 and ~1910
you can use the online search facility to locate them. I should point out
that the index is not yet fully transcribed but it is well worth your while
having a look



http://www.1901census.nationalarchives.gov.uk/



The official site of the Welsh and English census information for 1901

The 1881 census is online here provided by the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints

key dates for records in england and wales
1 July 1837 - Introduction of General Civil Registration of Births,
Marriages and Deaths in England and Wales Births Pre-1875 - an estimated 6
to 10% of births NOT registered
from 1875 more rigorous enforcement


http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/RegOffice/
Birth, Death and Marriage certificates can be ordered (in most cases) from
the offices listed for 7.00 UK pounds - you need a parish but not the
numbers above they use a local system
but these are the originals from which the quarterly returns are made to the
General Register Office

http://www.genuki.org.uk/ab/

For those of you who already have the index reference numbers from above for
the certificates you seek, the General Register Office has a online
certificate ordering service which is now open to everyone.

This Web site aims to help people tracing their family history by explaining
the usage of the different entries on birth, marriage, and death
certificates throughout the history of birth registration in England and
Wales.
The entries on the certificate and their interpretation has to have changed
over the past 150 years, and the interpretation of certificates without
knowledge of the legal requirements and practices of the period when the
registration was made can sometimes be difficult.

The birth registrations of Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Southern Ireland
are different from those of England and Wales and are not covered here.

good hunting
