during the recent bother it is giving us. I just posted this in hedgehog's thread, but thought it might catch more people's eyes by making it its own thread.

(Ancestry is just giving an error message when you search for births in the untranscribed images section.)

Start with one of these pages:

For births:

http://content.ancestry.co.uk/Browse/list.aspx?dbid=8912&path=1957

-- first, change the year at the end to the one you want. When you're at that page, select the quarter, then select the initial letter, then guess your way through the pages of images.

Marriages:

http://content.ancestry.co.uk/Browse/list.aspx?dbid=8913&path=1957

Deaths:

http://content.ancestry.co.uk/Browse/list.aspx?dbid=8914&path=1957


Works if you're too impatient to wait until Ancestry straightens up!
