Well it was weird yesterday, I looked up 2 quarters for someone on there and along came someone else and said that one quarter was missing. I thought I was going loopy. Went back entered details and yes it came up missing. Felt stupid. Went back half hour later, up came the quarter again. Strange, perhaps they are doing maintenance.

They've merged the two links - the old transcriptions and the Beta. Just go into England and Wales BMD Index. You then have a choice of what they used to call Beta, now called Search the complete images, or the FreeBMD transcription David
