New version of FreeBMD

[Merry]

For me, the worst part is the results page had nothing to easily separate each Qs results from the next so it's much, much slower to analyse the info.

At the bottom of my search results it says:

Mother’s Maiden Name, Spouse’s Surname, and Age at Death/Date of Birth are relevant for the records from 1993 onward.

What???

For a time there were some extremist political adverts, taking up most of the screen.

Comfy shoes and stairlifts, okay, but I don't really feel that politics should have any place on such a site.

How do you get to see the other people transcribed as the same page ref? (ie potential spouses and potential twins etc)??

Perhaps, ultimately, we will be able to just click on stuff, but currently you have to copy all the details, then go ack to the home screen and enter volume and page number etc.

I assume this is a response to AI, so the data cannot be scraped.

Click on the person's name in your search results, then click on the page number.

Thanks Kate.

I find it difficult with centre justified text, plus the surnames listed after the forenames, so they are not all underneath each other. Find myself having to read each name separately rather than just scanning down a list. Left justified with surname first is so much easier (IMHO).

Can anyone see how to search Identifiable spouses only on the new version?

Yes, there is a box under the Spouse's first name box.
