I now get my certificates from the Registry Office connected to the area I'm researching. I know you can't order over the phone, but you can consult first, it's £1.50 a cert. cheaper and they come VERY quickly. I wrote to Derby Office, posted last Saturday 1st class, they phoned up with a query on yesterday morning and said they'd post the certs that evening, so should get them tomorrow morning. This quick turnround has happened twice now, so I wonder if they're particularly on the ball, or whether other Register Offices are the same. What experiences have other people had?

Researching:
Orme, Derbyshire; Marshall, Derbyshire; Skinner, Cornwall; Boby, Suffolk & London
