Index for births, marriages and deaths for England and Wales (1837 – 2004)

These are alphabetical personal-name indexes to all the births, deaths and marriages registered in England and Wales since civil registration started on 1 July 1837. They were compiled every three months from 1837-1983 for each category - birth, death or marriage - and the resulting alphabetical series of quarterly volumes was labelled with the year and the name of the last month in each quarter - March, June, September and December. Since 1984 the index (still in three sections) has been compiled annually with each entry showing the month and year in which the birth, death or marriage took place. Family Historians can make use of these registrations to help create their family tree, working backwards from the present day to the start of civil registration
