For the last 5 days no matter what time I log on (7am to 1am) I cannot get a search done. I know that this info is on ancestry but I like being able to put 2 names in to search marriages.

Anyone else having this problem?

Hi,

I am on broadband and the same happens to me sometimes - what I do is unlimit the question - ie don't make the search to complicated.

Then when 30 answers come in put extra information in and bingo it searches far quicker and finds the 3 you wanted.

You have to "try" to out-think the computers!!  Wink

Cheers

Hi Anne,

After the success of "who do  you think you are" many sites and register offices are simply overloaded with requests. Cry

As we already know,  we have to be patient  Smiley
