Dear Listers Posting about such errors on this mailing list isnt going to fix anything ! NSW Genealogists have been fortunate over the years with the NSW Pioneers BDMS 1788-1888 published on CD back in 1992 . There were mistakes in this BUT I am pretty sure this CD was the first attempt to use this invention for this type of data and we thought it was amazing advance in technology. Then wonder of wonders BDM indexes went on line some 6 years later. An extra year has been added to the on line indexes on the 1st of January for a few years now . Compare with other States before you knock NSW too much bye MargM Sydney List Admin
