Hi Phil I'm wondering how the National Burial Index is doing these days? Does anyone have their latest CD and, if so, what areas and time frame are covered? My friend is considering purchasing a copy. Finding deaths in the earlier years is not so easy unless you are researching in Cornwall:-) I think these days there is far more information available than when I started researching (Originally in 1953) in the 1980s and then online once we had the internet in 1999. I recall googling my maiden name and was amazed to find two sites - both set up by my 8th cousin. Now when I type in my maiden name I get 216,000 sites! How times have changed.
