 The National Archives has today announced that records from the General Register Office: Miscellaneous Foreign Returns, 1831-1964 (RG 32) have been added to the online service at BMD Registers. Searching the records is free, but there is a charge to download images of the original documents.
The records contain largely non-statutory documents relating to births, baptisms, marriages, deaths and burials abroad, and on British as well as foreign ships, of British subjects, nationals of the colonies, the Commonwealth and countries under British jurisdiction. Events affecting some foreign nationals are also included.
More information can be seen at www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/news/stories/381.htm?news=rss |

 We have been approached by a firm of architects working on a history of the Cliveden Estate and its cottages to see whether any of our members are related to the staff who worked there or can give any information about the life of the staff.
We know a little about the Gamekeeper , Benjamin Cooper, the Carter/gardener James Ludgate and little about a gardener, James Jeffries. Are you related to any of these or any other member of the staff who worked 'below stairs' or on the estate? If so can you let us know so that we can put you in touch. Email us |

 Do you have problems with a marriage between 1837 and 1911? The civil registration index or the certified copy appears to be wrong? Do you need to find the parish where the marriage took place, or find evidence of a non-conformist marriage?
