Up untill Christmas last year in 10 years, I only ordered 1 wrong certificate and that turned out to be a cousin of the person I was looking for in the first place, so not to bad. However this year I have four wrong uns I am loosing my grip.

must say though that now the checking point has been withdrawn i am reluctant to order some certs on the off chance, £9.25 is a lot to waste!
I have bought wrong certs and put them down to experience but reluctant now to order on side twigs of my tree

Hi Shirley & Deana,
Thank's for replying, Sorry I got called away. I found a marriage record on family search pilot for a William Williams to Eliza Williams in Cheshire 1848 father Reece Williams I was positive it must be a brother of my 2xgrt gradmother,Iam going round in circles with this family.So don't know where to go now. She's born in Wales on 1851 census but Cheshire in 1841(if I have the right person in 1841)
