Catholic Parish Registers and Modern marriage indexes

We are pleased to announce that the first tranche of Catholic Parish Registers are now online. Please read about them before using them.

We are also pleased to announce that the modern day marriage indexes - NOT IMAGES - 1934-2006 are now available, and corresponding extracts can be ordered. However, customers are advised to read important information regarding extract orders.

Customers should be aware that refunds will generally not be given if an incorrect certificate has been ordered and therefore they should be sure that the document being purchased is the correct one prior to ordering a modern day extract. If you are in any doubt about the accuracy of the document required, you can also order the extract from GROS. The charges and services available are detailed at http://www.gro-scotland.gov.uk/famrec/index.html. under the paragraph providing information about ordering official extracts.
