Family History Certificates (prior to 1924)
If you would like to request Family History certificates prior to 1924 and you have a GRO reference number from an Ancestry website please visit the General Register Office website to place your order. Alternatively you may apply to the Nottingham Register office on the link below and we will conduct a search - we cannot recognise the ancestry reference numbers therefore please provide, as a minimum, the names, location, year and quarter for the Birth, Death or Marriage. If we are unable to find the record after a search then the £12.50 fee will be retained but we will contact you to let you know our progress.
