 About the data |
Please note the following:
- Every effort has been made to ensure this listing has been correctly
transcribed. But please check all references before applying for
certificates. The compiler cannot be held responsible for any
errors in certificate applications as a result of using these
data.
- All indexes between the dates given above have been searched.
In some quarters no people with the surnames Smithies were found.
- Very few spelling variations of surname (eg Smithers) included,
where personally relevant. A thorough search for variants has
not been done.
- Lists are sorted chronologically.
- Late registrations and failure to register an event should
be allowed for when searching.

| Applying for a certificate |
If you apply for one of the War Death certificates you will need to
make it clear that this is the case when you apply and state the category
(e.g. R.A.F. other Ranks). Those Casualties who died in the UK are
in the ordinary indexes, so you can apply for their certificates in
the usual way.
- the over-the-counter ordering service for BMD certificates is
no longer available at the Family Record Centre in London (closed
March 2008) but the Family
Records website offers alternative suggestions;
- the relevant Registration district office
- See Registration
Districts for births, marriages and deaths after Sept
1837
- UK BMD have a growing
number of references to help you order, especially for counties
such as Cheshire and Lancashire
- Office of National Statistics,
part of National Statistics - for post July 1837 English and Welsh
births, marriages and deaths enquiries. Includes list of fees
charged for certificates (revised April 2003). If you want to
find or order a certificate, try www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/
Or by post to:
The Office for National Statistics, Smedley Hydro, Birkdale, Southport,
PR8 2HH, England. If you apply by post you will need to ensure
you have enclosed the correct payment.
If you are interested in someone with the surname who is not listed,
please email as I may have more information
and fairly extensive lists, though my lists are not complete.
