Hi Frances >>>first things first ...what's her name ?..when was she born roughly ?...where ? If you have some answers to all these your first port of call would be lancashirebmd.com.. if you get lucky and get the ref you can then apply for the certificate ... Better still take a read of some of the beginners guides on Genuki.com & Rootsweb.com ...
