A Great Genealogy Resource

Mum asked a collegue at work about their family history research, as she knew that the lady and her husband had done quite a lot already.

The husband passed on a list of useful websites and this morning i've started working my way through them.

i've started with this one:

http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/

it contains scanner images of the birth, marriage and death indexes.

a great resource thats seem to be working well so far. their search system seems to be bringing up most of my names, but even if it doesn't you can look through the whole index if you know the year and quarter - the only problem is you have to work out what page number it is on!
