Hi - I've found a marriage on Lancashire BMD in 1920. It was registered at Blackburn Registry Office and the ref is RM/206/174. How can I apply to the GRO for the cert. Thanks.

Would have thought the best way was to find the same entry on Free BMD (http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl) - presuming it has been transcribed - and apply online to the GRO (http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/) with the reference from there
Ancestry and FMP also have marriages from that period indexed
Cheers

Well, you sort of CAN order by email (or you could) - this is my workaround, lol, but don't tell them I told you!
Send them an email asking if they are able to supply certificate blah blah and can they confirm that someone on the cert is called joe Bloggs (or whatever). This query bit is important otherwise they may just direct you to the Lancsbmd site.
I have had brilliant service from Blackburn in the past, I cannot praise them highly enough - I once emailed them late Sunday night and received the cert first thing Tuesday morning, before I had even paid for it!
