When searching, you must enter:
- A Family Name and Search From Date or
- A Registration Number.
Some transcription errors were created in our database when the registers were scanned, we suggest you to use a 'less is best' approach when searching.
If you receive too many results, narrow your date range.
The registration number is unique to a registration within each life event type and is different to the folio number you may be familiar with on microfiche indexes available in libraries etc. For more tips on how to search, go to
