Unknown Report 7 Nov 2016 21:17

Trying to trace a birth certificate for Arthur Clark. Born April 29th 1900 in Eling Hampshire. Recorded on school registers 1870-1914 as having a parent of Mr Street. Recorded on 1911 census as grandson of William and Betsey Street. I know he married and emigrated to America and had a daughter named Dolores and a son called Arthur T. Clark. Can anyone tell me how to obtain a death certificate for his daughter who died in America and also obtain a birth certificate ( tried the GRO) for Arthur Clark and also a marriage certificate? Any help would be appreciated as i keep hitting brick walls. I met Arthur Clark in the 1960's and he was introduced as a cousin of my Mother Marjory king whose sister Ellen Florence Street married William King my mothers Father. Thank you.
