Catherine, I found that certain applications have been dealt with in different ways. In one case I entered the date wrong, and the local office sent me the 2 possible certificates for the price of 1. |

The reference numbers that you find online (say on Ancestry) are those required by the GRO in Southport. If you order online from them it will only cost £7. |

They are definitely the right reference numbers according to Ancestry. |

Hi Catherine, Just a little tip when ordering on line, if you have names of parents or marriage partners etc add these to the Reference Checking Page (on the next page when ordering on line), if you put them in the first page they don't check them. I just received a birth cert I ordered and gave both the actual date of birth as 21 Dec and mother's christian name and maiden surname (Emma Long). The certificate they sent had the birth date of 24th August and mother's name as Elizabeth Griffiths. When I qaueried it they gave me the following reason. They only check the first 2 lines and the GRO number, They will only read the full details if NO Gro number is given, so always fill in Cross Reference Checking, otherwise like me you'll receive the wrong certificate, Hope this makes sence.
