FMP have overseas births of British Nationals, or was it a military birth

But what timescale are you seeking?

The dates I am looking for are between 1834-1847. I think the father was a civil servant

FMP covers 1818 to 2005

So If you post names etc, it can be looked at.

Thankyou all for your help. I think I might have found something on the National Archives site and ordered an estimate. Fingers crossed
