''' General Register Office [UK]'''<br>'''and some other sources of records from abroad.'''
Registration of births, marriage and deaths in England started in 1837. Copies of certificates can be obtained from the '''General Register Office (GRO)'''. It was not compulsory to register a birth, marriage or death with the British authorities whilst you were abroad, but if the event was registered, then a certificate can be obtained from the GRO.
