I have subscribed to Ancestry for a long time, but have not been on recently. I don't seem to be able to search BMDs on a quarter by quarter basis (ie looking at 1920 - 1960 ish). Am I going mad? HELP....

If you mean you are getting blank results when you search - this has been happening on and off for some time now.

Today I am having problems with census images not loading. :-(

Hi again

No, what I mean is, I used to go into Ancestry and click on 'all databases' and then on BMD England and Wales. Then I could select B or M or D and type in a name and year and usually the 4 quarters would come up with a little icon to click on the right.The whole page would then come up to search. Now there only appear to be limited pages, so I can't check something quarter by quarter. Am I making sense?
