    "If you are looking at pre 1900 births and marriages then you can always try the IGI on https://www.familysearch.org which is free to look at."

    Actually, the IGI covers the period BEFORE the creation of the Registrars Office in mid-1837 (although it does cover some up until the 1860's). It records entries from the parish records for births and marriages back until about 1588.
