Hello Listers - I . I would like to download a blank copy of request for birth certificate as I have a reference obtained from LDS as party has not yet been added to the Cheshire BMD. 2. Will it be OK to mail our a request form if I am not sure of the exact reference number. The following are some examples: A. William Henry Glazebrook Sep Qtr 1870 8A 470 but the 4 is not clear, it might be something else. The 1881 census showed him born in Tranmere the LDS fiche shows registration as Birkenhead B. What about someone where I only have name and a date christened in St.Peters church in Liverpool and the father`s name. Would that be enough? C. Another instance what chance is there of getting a certificate if the LDS only show Batch numbers along with dates and names? Should they have other information that I need to get or is the batch numbers only in order to order their films? I`m sorry to be so dense about all this, I ordered a marriage certificate after downloading a copy and received it w/o any trouble, but in these instances the information is not on the system so I would like to have a site where I can get a blank copy. I believe someone wrote a while back that if I am ordering several certificates at the same time I should forward individual payments in case one or more are not available. Is that still a valid option? How do I know which of several Birkenhead locations I would mail to? or are they all now in the same Wirral location? Has anyone any experience with unsure data? Will they try to match up the right one with the type of info that I have? I`m half afraid to mail this out with so many questions, I apologise Cheers Joyce
