We have drastically improved your experience of searching our overseas, at-sea and armed forces birth and marriage records.
We’ve given these records the same treatment as our England and Wales birth and marriage records, so finding your ancestors will now be much quicker and simpler.
When you search these records, your results will be in a list of individual names. Previously, your results showed a list of pages and the first and last names that appeared on each page. Now when you search, you should be able to spot your ancestors in the list straight away. We do always advise that you check the original image before ordering any certificates, however, to ensure that all the details are correct.
