Hi Michaela, What you could do is send to the BMD office here in Perth, and ask for them to check the parents of the marriage entries you have for Winfred, and get them to send you the correct one. Don't forget to give them ALL the details you have, and be sure to ask for a FULL certificate. The address is: Registrar General's Office PO Box 7720 CLOISTERS SQUARE PERTH WA 6850 Cost is $40.00 for a Full Certificate Where Birth, Death or Marriage entry is at least 60 years or older, and the registration number is supplied, cost is $20.00 On my list there is nothing quoted for a search fee.....so I am assuming they will do this for the cost of the certificate. Perhaps someone else can clarify this for you. Hope this helps Wendy Michaela Morgan wrote: >Hi All, > >I recently learnt that my ggg grandmother Martha THOMAS (nee LAMB) died in WA in 1919 and is buried at Karrakatta Cemetery.
