Sorry Nell.....just my stupid sense of humour! Family Relatives and 1837online have the full GRO indexes. FreeBMD is an ongoing transcription with gaps. To see what's done and what's missing go to the FreeBMD Main Page, then Information and then Coverage Charts. As I said before, you can view untranscribed pages for free via FreeBMD, but it's not as quick as the pay-per-view sites. Merry

Does the familyrelatives . org site have more info than free BMD? And does the site work these days??

1837online doesn't say 'no matches' it gives you the pages for each quarter for you to check yourself. nell

When you say you have tried 1837online but it says no matches can be found....Do you mean there are no marriages for a Job Hann in the four quarters for 1854 and for 1855? Merry

If you want to start with justy those two years you can actually view the pages via FreeBMD for nothing!! Go to the search page Click Main Page at the bottom left Click View Images Fill in the boxes go to each quarter in turn and you will brobably have to download a few pages before you hit the right one....I would try for Job Hann first as her name has variable spellings. If you don't have any luck with those two years then you will need to work outwards years by year. Have you got Job in 1841?? Benjamin; HANN; 35; Publican; Yes; HO 107/291/9 Elizabeth; HANN; 35; ; Yes; HO 107/291/9 Mary; HANN; 10; ; Yes; HO 107/291/9 >>>> Job; HANN; 8; ; Yes; HO 107/291/9 Elizabeth; HANN; 7; ; Yes; HO 107/291/9 Martha; HANN; 6; ; Yes; HO 107/291/9 Caroline; HANN; 5; ; Yes; HO 107/291/9 Solomon; HANN; 4; ; Yes; HO 107/291/9 Benjamin; HANN; 3; ; Yes; HO 107/291/9 Sampson; HANN; 2; ; Yes; HO 107/291/9 Guess that's him??

Freebmd is not complete, Ancestry takes its info from Freebmd and LDS does not have civil registration records. So you will need to look in the GRO marriage indexes. These are complete and you can see them free oat a library/records office which has them on microfiche or you can pay to see them on www* 1837online *com. Replace * with . nell

I'm trying to find a marriage between Job Hann and Bridget Malloy/Melloy in 1854/5 in Dorset. I have searched all the usual places like BMD, LDS, Ancestry etc. but with no luck. Just wondered if one of you super sleuths out there would be more succesful. I would be very grateful for your help. Thanks, Sue.
