What will the index tell me?
The index entry will give you the year, surname, given names and the area where registered. For deaths, the age at death is also included. There will also be a reference number to the volume and entry where a copy of the certificate can be found.
I think I've found a relative, what next?
If you want to you can order the certificate from the Isle of Man Civil Registry. A certificate with the index reference number supplied is £7.00, with the reference it is £9.50. Send your cheque or PO (made payable to the Isle of Man Government) along with the details from the index to
The Douglas Civil Registry Office, Deemsters Walk, Douglas, Isle of Man, IM1 3AR

Image quality
The majority of images are of good quality, but some are not. This could be because of the state of the original, but where appropriate these will be replaced. If you are not sure of the reference number for your entry you are looking for, do speak to the Civil Registry who may be able to undertake a search for you. A search of 3 years is £3.50
