Search all local UK BMD sites at once
I've never seen this before! Did everyone else know about it?
http://www.ukbmdsearch.org.uk/ Should save a lot of time when you're not sure which county you want. It only includes those local BMD sites which use the UK BMD software, so some are excluded, such as Kent and Sunderland, but I couldn't fit that in the thread title. |

A major advance! No, I for one had never seen this. Thanks so much, Kite.

Sunderland had something similar for a while but there were complaints about such up to date records being available and it was closed down. I found it very useful while it was online.

No, I've not seen that before. Thanks, it should be very useful. Did you come across it by chance?

Yes, I was looking on the UK BMD site trying to figure out which local site I needed for a certain district, when I spotted it.

I think it was an IT problem rather than complaints about up to date info being available.

I think I must have seen this and subconsciously dismissed it, thinking "if I want to search the whole of the UK, I will use freebmd".

Yes, I would use FreeBMD first, OC, but it's when you've found a record on FreeBMD and you want to know which church or register office a marriage took place at, or check who married whom, for instance - sometimes it can take a while to figure out which local BMD site to look at for the particular district, whereas using this link, you don't need to bother about that.

Yes, I hadn't got that far! It may have dawned eventually or it may have needed this thread.

It's been there for ages as far as I remember, but I haven't used it much.
