Brian Have a look at https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/most_customers_want_to_know. asp#FamilyHistory1 Then look at Q1. What is a GRO index reference, and where can I find it? Where it details the 7 places that hold the indexes on microfiche. No sure of the starting dates but certainly as far as 2016 Regards John Hanson, researcher, the Halsted Trust, http://www.halstedresearch.org.uk -----Original Message----- From: GOONS [mailto:goons-bounces+john.hanson=one-name.org@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Brian Swann Sent: 18 March 2017 06:05 To: goons@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [G] PDF Pilot phase 3 of the England & Wales certificate ordering system Can someone just clarify for me how you get to marriages happening between 2006 and 2010? I thought all electronic indexes being available stopped at 2006/7. And they are not available on the GRO website, that is for sure.

Just hoped it might have gone electronic, instead of me having to trudge up to the Westminster Archives.

Hi, I note that the link re Q1 only has UK sites which are of no use to those outside the UK. I am sure that there must be other places outside the UK that hold sets of the England & Wales BMD's on Microfiche, it is a pity the the GRO site does not include these as known International sites. For example the Auckland Public Library does hold a set, however I am unsure as to if it is complete meaning up to 2016 with Births and Deaths plus Marriage to 2014. When I did look at these some years ago what they held was up to 2000 if memory serves me correctly. I note the GRO England & Wales Microfiche of BDM's does not show up in the online index for the Auckland Public Library.
