Hi Stefany,

Wish it was as easy as that, there is no central registry for BD&Ms in
Greece nor are the records on- line. All BD&M records are held by Records
Offices of Local Councils (Shire Councils would probably be the closest in
Aust. terms). In other words you will have to have the location of the
marriage before you can apply, also a year of marriage & the correct names
would be advisable. There will be church records (if the marriage took
place in a church) also but again you will have to have the location of the
marriage.
Is there no way you can obtain the date & location?

Therese
