I put all my records and certs into A4 plastic pocket thinges but i'v found the birth certs and death certs fit in nice but the marrige certs are to long and i have to fold them. I dont to do that because they will get damaged is there any bigger ones we can bye. Sure someone will know. Gill

Hi Gill, I have the same problem. I know that you can get A3 pockets, but then they don't fit into the files too well!!! c x

I think you can get them from S&N genealogy supplies. Heather

Yes you would think with so many people doing this now someone would have come up with something these certs are so expensive. if you keep them they will get damaged. gill

You can get files for certificates. they are a bit pricy though. you get them from specialist suppliers, look in FH magazines for adverts. Ann Glos

I've seen them on sale at Family History Fairs but they are pricey. Personally I fold them where there isn't any writing, after all the ones that have handed down to me are already folded June xx
