Sorry to hear of your difficulties but now I understand why I can't find certain BMD's on ancestry! |

Most of the BMD's on Ancestry are correct but you do sometimes get one that is misindexed (is there such a word). |

What happens sometimes is that an addition has been hand written at the end of the page and puts the alpha sequence out so that Ancestry search mechanism doesn't pick it up. You can find the other qtrs by opening one of them and then clicking on the year at the top of the record . the qtrs then come up and you select the qtr you want then you select the alpha ie "T" then trawl through the indexes till you get to the page you want ,you can short cut that too by noting the page nos on the qtr you can find ie is page o 75 of 101 and then try for around page nos 75 on the new qtr. |

When their are quarters missing on ancestry? try to clickon any quarter that is for the year you are searching, then at the top of the page where it says You are here: Search > Birth, Marriage & Death > England & Wales, Birth Index: 1837-1983 > 1931 > Q4-Oct-Nov-Dec |
