_http://freebmd.rootsweb.com_ (http://freebmd.rootsweb.com) It's the birth, marriage & death indexes You can either view the images (like 1837.com) or search (like Ancestry.com) but whereas you will pay to join 1837, this one is free. Ancestry has a joining fee but you can access birth, marriage & deaths without having to join If you haven't been on the site before, there is an advert for Ancestry at the top of the page which isn't what you're looking for. Just scroll down the page till you find the buttons. Good luck Teresa
