Tim,
Have you tried
www.ukbmdsearch.org.uk ?
This accesses the available online local Registry Office indexes.
You have the option of searching individual regions or a job lot.
I tried the latter for births registered between 1837 & 1862 (will only permit block
searches covering a 25 year period).
The results returned included an unnamed boy and girl Catley registered at Myton (Hull RD)
during 1844.
Ditto for a girl at Midsomer Norton (Bath RD) in 1837, she being the daughter of Joshia
with mother's maiden name listed as Taylor and also a further girl registered in 1850
at Clutton (Bath RD), the daughter of Mary Ann Catley.
Don't forget there is always a chance that bod's registered locally never made it
into the national GRO listings.

Hi Liz,
I know we have spoken about this before but as we did not come to any conclusion, am
putting this email via The List:-
Am inputting the Catley GRO Deaths for 1984 to 2005 into my database and have come
across numerous instances where I can not find a birth record.
Am using the Ancestry print outs which as you know ; show name//date-month-year of
birth//month and year of death// age//registration district.
However, in some cases I can not tie the birth event given in these death records the
corresponding GRO birth records. I thought that maybe the answer could possibly be that
the individuals involved might have been born abroad but there seem to be too many
instances for that to be a likely answer?
Has anyone else come across this problem?
Tim
