Hi Linda, My first attempts at using the site gave the same disappointing results as your check. However, by inputting less data I found that the expected results came through and gave me reassurance. It may be that in spite of this the index is not as complete as we all would like.

I agree with Jim - It may be that in spite of this the index is not as complete as we all would like. For example I could only find two of my ancestors and only one of my wife's. I found my mother's date of birth (1903) but her death index could not be found no matter what I tried. I found my Grandmother's death index (1907) but couldn't find her birth (1868) even though the death details shows her age. I tried many of my ancestors for whom I had all the information already but couldn't find any of them. I couldn't even find my wife's or my birth index. So, I agree; I do not believe the index is as up to date as we would like.
