Ancestry does not stop at 1916. Records for births and marriages are there for up to 2005 and deaths up to 2006. I often find records on Ancestry that I don't see on FeeBMD. However, FreeBMD is sometimes better for finding names of spouses on marriage records.

It is more complete and also has the Postems which give additional information not otherwise found in the indices. Ancestry's version stops in about 1916 whilst that on FreeBMD's own site go up to the 1950s now. FreeBMD's sister projects can be found at www.freereg.org.uk (parish registers) and www.freecen.org.uk (censuses). Both are, like FreeBMD, volunteer projects and not yet complete. FreeREG has a heck of a long way to go and is great need of more volunteers to do transcriptions. -- Charani (UK) OPC for Walton, Ashcott, Shapwick, Greinton and Clutton, SOM http://wsom-opc.org.uk ************************************** Send your List messages using **PLAIN TEXT** and always **TRIM AWAY** superfluous old messages in replies. **MEANINGFUL Subject Lines - who, what, where, when, with SURNAMES in CAPITAL letters** List Admin can be contacted at: [email protected] ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
