I have just post this on the Guild's Web Forum *Progress on Guild Indexes* Since I posted the subject of Inferred Marriage Partners on the Guild Web Forum there have been several developments and completed IMP files are beginning to be emailed to me and uploaded to the GMI successfully.The following additions have been added to the Guild Indexes: ·Anne Shankland has now added an extra search field on the GMI name search: "Return only entries added or updated since - " with select boxes for day/month/year.This does what you would expect, and filters the search results so that you only get entries with an update flag greater than the date specified.You can't go back further than 2015, though, as that's when the GMI became a database and got an update field. ·Anne Shankland has also added the "search for entries added/updated since xx/xx/xx" facility to ALL the GMI searches. ·The "search for entries added/updated since xx/xx/xx" facility has also been added for all the BMD-Vault search. ·The "search for entries added/updated since xx/xx/xx" facility has also been added to the Worldwide Marriages search as well. ·The Worldwide Marriages now includes the facility to allow searching for your "own" entries. *Online indexing form* It has been suggested that an on-line indexing form is needed for the GMI. That way when a member identifies a marriage they can enter it on the form along with the inferred marriage. This has been added to the list of tasks Anne Shankland will be working on in the future. The facility will be similar to the on-line indexing forms available for the BMD Vault and will including a checking facility to make sure the entry is not a duplicate and that an IMP entry does not already exist for the specified year, quarter, volume and page. *Other sources for Marriages* It has been suggested that there are other sources for Marriages that could be used for the GMI, including the Guild’s Website project and the Family Search Initiative.However, I have found that there are different ways in which the data is held (i.e. spreadsheets, PDF, word documents etc.) which impacts on how the data could be uploaded to the GMI.In particular, I have experienced difficulties in extracting data from PDFs without undertaking a lot of extra work.I would be interested in other members experience with extracting marriage data.

Ann, This is trial 3 - there have already been 2 other trials. This one is for producing PDFs of *non-digitalised* certificates. I assume birth certificates have been digitalised up to (and including) 1934. The supply of PDFs of digitalised certs was in trial 1, when they were available for £6. If the trials go as expected we can presumably expect PDFs available at these prices in the future, but I think part of the reason for the trials is to check costs. If we're lucky they will have taken less effort than expected and the prices will be lower. I've no idea how long it will take to get a regular service started after the trials - I don't know if anyone does?

Tony, the spouse surname given against Deborah Ann SWANSON's name is WESTWOOD so that was probably William's name at the time of marriage. Strangely, MINGAY isn't in the list on Scotland's People.

At first I thought that they might have been the names of her previous husbands, as has occurred in other entries, but this I doubt because of her age, even gave some thought that they might be witnesses but there is no evidence to support that idea. The idea that the groom has changed his surname several times also sprung to mind, if so why? So what else can be the explanation?

Hi, I note that the link re Q1 only has UK sites which are of no use to those outside the UK. I am sure that there must be other places outside the UK that hold sets of the England & Wales BMD's on Microfiche, it is a pity the the GRO site does not include these as known International sites. For example the Auckland Public Library does hold a set, however I am unsure as to if it is complete meaning up to 2016 with Births and Deaths plus Marriage to 2014. When I did look at these some years ago what they held was up to 2000 if memory serves me correctly. I note the GRO England & Wales Microfiche of BDM's does not show up in the online index for the Auckland Public Library.
