Hi Listers I am researching William Entwistle who was a convict. He was convicted of Uttering Forged Notes in Lancaster on 20 March 1819. We was deported for 14 years. Is anyone able to give me a copy of his trial notes, or a link to same. Thanks in advance Greg --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!

Hi Folks, I confess to being totally puzzled why anyone would want to use the old search routine when it gives you LESS number of matches than the new system? BIRTHS, 1800-1880 for Margaret JONES Old system - 160 entries New system - 168 entries Old system - Margaret or Margreat or marg?ret or ??? New system - Marg* Try a few other comparisons - there is no contest - the new system is far more accurate. Embrace the new, don't deprive yourself of finding the entry you're looking for! <vbg> Regards ......

  Hello,   Thanks to others sending me info I have now completed a little webpage with links to the URLs for older-style searching interface: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5737284/nsw-bdm.htm [1] If you use that, then to switch between marriages and births/deaths view .. do not use the links on the old-view webpages .. and they now will only take you to the new form of searching. Instead, to switch, return to the above URL open page (nsw-bdm.htm [2] ) and go to the other place (old style view) from there. I hope this is simple :-) As I am a very simple bloke.   (But how long will the old form of the database search remain operative is anyone's guess I suppose ... ). Cheers,  John (Sydney)     Links: ------ [1] https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5737284/nsw-bdm.htm [2] https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5737284/nsw-bdmhtm

Hi John You can create the old link for Births/Deaths just by editing the word 'marriages' in the URL published on the List yesterday and which you saved. I did that yesterday and it works correctly. The same link can be used for both, but you can create separate links for births and deaths if you want to.

Hello List, I sent an email to NSW BDM yesterday asking advice on how to navigate their new web site and received this reply. See below. regards Max Bancroft ............................................................................ ............................................... Thank you for your email. We have a new site http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/bdm_fft.html We are still working on improving the site. Please have a look a hints on searching. We have received a lot of feedback since the implementation which we have taken on board and are currently working on implementing a lot of what you have suggested. As in all things with programming it may take some time and more essential things will be done first, being the items that have the biggest impact for researchers. In the cases where you don't know the name of the spouse place * in the name field. Regards Pauline Holmes Senior Administration Officer

Thankyou for your help. It worked okay the first one when I was looking for a birth and then when I was looking for a death it wouldn't work just kept coming up asking me to put in a valid date. I did prefer the older style of searching. Thanks. Margaret Boots.

Hi John That's exactly what I did reduced the screen. All good now kind regards Dianna

Hi List, I have been having problems with the new NSW site. When I am looking for a birth and I have no idea of the year, I use the from and to columns. If I put in 01/01/1900 to 31/12/1910 it says put in a valid date. What am I doing wrong. Cheers Margaret Boots.

Have you tried http://www.lpi.nsw.gov.au/land_titles/historical_research?

  Hello, It's perfectly use-able (once anyone finds out how to use it)  --- and gives the same info as BDM-online did before ; however the old interface they replaced was much more intuitive and informative ... and needed no special instructions or divine revelations/insights to be able to use.
