thanks for the link Caroline ... some useful info
if you're a Findmypast subscriber, we'll open the record for free. If you're not a subscriber, this request will go via The National Archives, who will charge a flat fee of £25.Don't put off until tomorrow what you can do today ~ follow your dream!

I applied a day or two after the register appeared online and yesterday got emails for two of the three records I applied to have opened. Hopefully the third will soon follow. There are still two locked lines in the household. I will ask my aunt if I can get a copy of my uncle's death certificate as he died a couple of years ago. The last one however is for an uncle who just died last month. I couldn't ask for a copy of that, so I'll have to buy it myself. Once all those are opened, I'll consider buying credits to see the image.

If so, you need to preview the household in which the "officially closed person" appears, click on UPDATE THE RECORD and select ASK US TO OPEN A CLOSED RECORD.
You then complete the form, attach a death certificate for whom you think the close record applies, and submit. If the death certificate is for the closed person, then FMP will unlock it. If it's not, then you are back to square one!Elaine

hmmmmmmmmmmmm thanks Elaine , yes it is the 1939 but it could be anyone she had 15 children and one is showing as unlocked on 1939 the one I am not really interested in ,although I do have the death certs for all of them, I might end up putting a look up request to see where he was before and after 1939.
