If you are looking to search public records online, there are a few very good places where you can gather information. Most of the information out there is free if you know where to search online for public records. There is a minor setback with some countries or states where you may not get access to certain information without physical proof of identification or payment. Such information would include the following:
- Birth certificates
- Driver’s licenses
- Marriage certificates
Other than this information, searching public records is rather simple. The following sites are the easiest and the most commonly used.

These are public search engines which provide the ability to search for public records for free. These are also two of the worlds largest databases of information. Each offers Reverse Lookup, Phone listings, and other relevant search aids.

- Birth Certificates
- Death Records
- Marriage Licenses
- Divorce Decrees

DirectGov
This is the British version of the government searchable public records database. As with the United States site, this site lists any agency which handles public records and information. This is also a free public records search.
