Can someone please explain where I find this number? I want to order a marriage cert. I have found the marriage and have line no, page no ,date etc but ordering online it requires the GRO number.

Any help please would be appreciated

GRO refs are volume no and page no

For example

Hargreaves Jack Metcalfe Warrington 8c 319

8c is VOLUME 319 is PAGE

Those are the refs you need

Ah thanks. I do have these details but thought it was just one number. I am used to ringing up and giving all the details over the phone and this is the first time of ordering on line.

Thanks for your help
