I know this will have been said before but it is always worth repeating.
Try to get your certificates from a local register office if you can, rather than the GRO,
I went into my local register office yesterday to request the birth certificate for a GG GM of mine. I know her father's name so put it on the form. Whilst making small-talk I said "I hope she's mine" and the woman said
Oh well, you've put the father's name there on the form - if it isn't that one we will ring you and you can have your cheque back.
Great stuff! Hope to receive the cert in the next couple of days too.
