Hi Bill I purchased my copy from the Church of LDS.If you go on their website www.familysearch.org select ORDER/DOWNLOAD PRODUCTS (top right hand on webpage) select FAMILY HISTORY (left hand side of page) then SOFTWARE AND DATABASES then VITAL RECORDS INDEXES You should then come to a page that lists all the Vital records Indexes they have for sale. Select BVRI 2nd edition. It includes a viewer CD and 16 others for Births Baptisms and Marriages --no death and burials in a nice compact folder and only $20 US. 12.3 million records included for England Ireland Scotland and Wales Unfortunately not all but still a good buy I think Hope this is a help to you.By the way I believe this can also be ordered in some cases from you own LDS distribution centre in your own country rather than from the US. cheers Marion Message: 6 Date: Tue, 22 May 2007 16:54:18 -0400 From: wmeehan678@aol.com Subject: Re: [ROSCOMMON] ROSCOMMON Digest, Vol 2, Issue 27 To: roscommon@rootsweb.com Message-ID: <8C96ACA803656C7-8C-DB0@webmail-db21.sysops.aol.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Marion: where could I purchase a copy of the BVRI?
