Ooh, that's interesting. Wonder whether FMP will have it tomorrow? I will start a new thread about the Scotland and Northern Ireland one so people see what it is in the title.

I searched for a surname & only got one result. Searched again & got 48 so guess it's being a little temperamental lol

Hmm, ancestry say "Original data: British Death Indexes. Various sources." Not giving much away there! I don't think it is complete, anyway.

lol! At one point I'd accidentally left 2008 in the year of death box, so I thought I'd solved the problem by removing the date and starting again. I looked for my father-in-law (2009), our neighbour (2009), a cousin, (2010), two famous people (2010) and a friend (2008) and only the neighbour appeared.

I presume they put it together from other sources which don't cover all deaths.

Well yes, but I can't think what those sources would be.
