Hi Natae
I've not heard of them. Is there any reason why you are planning to order a cert. through them rather than direct from GRO or from the local register office?
(GRO is at: http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/ )

Perhaps it is a marriage from Gretna Green or similar?

Best wishes
Lesley

Hi Lesley:

Natae has previously posted about a Gretna Green marriage http://talkingscot.com/forum/viewtopic. ... highlight= and the cost of obtaining a certificate from the site listed on SP as having those records http://www.gro-scotland.gov.uk/files1/f ... riages.pdf

I think it must be a legitimate organization if it is being cited on SP and the cost of the certificate is £15. As a commercial source, that’s not an outlandish price.

Hi Frances
Ahh... I had a vague memory that there had been a post about Gretna certs before. But it was too early in the morning for me and I was only on my first cup of tea....

Best wishes
Lesley
