Morning everyone, I was wondering if anyone could find me a death index (2009) so I can order a death cert.

Many thanks,

Steve. :-)

Guidance from the GRO website:

You can also search for index reference numbers for free at:
Library of Birmingham
Bridgend Reference and Information Library
City of Westminster Archives Centre
Newcastle City Library
Plymouth Central Library
The British Library (you’ll need to register first)

These are the only complete copies of the full sets of index reference numbers. They’re on microfiche.

View index reference numbers locally
Some of the index reference numbers are available at local libraries, archives and other locations.

Records as recent as that are not on line

And if you do find the right reference number, they will ask why you want it and you have to prove you are related.

I do not think you can even order the most recent Certificates online.

DC thats not correct,

The GRO will supply Certified copies of any entries provided that the applicant supplies sufficient particulars about the event to enable the entry to be correctly identified

It's just the recent index thats not available online, After 2005/6 you cannot search them online but you can see them at certain locations,

Google for the locations that hold them.

Just for info:

Scottish deaths up to and including 2012 can be searched online at ScotlandsPeople. GROS ref is also shown, and extracts can be ordered online.

Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.
