 It is with great sadness that we have to inform Society members that our President Alan Dell F.S.G (Fellow of the Society of Genealogists) passed away peacefully on Thursday morning after a short illness. Alan was one of our founder members and past Chairman, editor of Origins (winning the prestigious FFHS "Simpson Award") and Publications Manager amongst a long list of roles in which he helped the Society over almost thirty five years.

The Identity & Passport Service has warned: don't pay too much for your replacement birth certificates. See their advice here
This applies equally to other certificates.
When using commercial websites to find an index entry for a birth, marriage or death registration it can be tempting to click on a conveniently placed link to order a certificate. However it will almost certainly be cheaper(or at least the same) to go the official government site to order
