Just noticed that the birth records on GR now go up to 2008.
Thought it was a misprint until I found my grandaughters birth ref index.

It is individual name indexing that Platinum members have access to.

I have just checked it does not apply to the quarterly birth records other members have access to

:-D :-D :-D

I thought the government had decided not to release any more birth, marriage and death indexes to go online after 2006 which are on Findmypast.

I wonder why BrightSolid have decided to put these on Genes and NOT on Findmypast?

Even on here they are no where near complete...just tested the name Smith

2006>>>> 12,000 +
2007>>>> 800 +
2008 >>>> 6

I have come accross 2007 deaths on FMP but dont feel the need to look up recent births

Researching:
Nothing much
