Because we work as part of a syndicate, and each syndicate is allocated a year/quarter to transcribe.  I am working for a syndicate which has been allocated all the marriage entries for 1969.  1970 marriages have been allocated to two other syndicates.

Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.
Remember - "They'll be found when they want to be found" !!!

Hope that FreeBMD have considered whether to show names in the Index for the 1950's onward ? ......  :P

I'm not quite sure what you mean.  FreeBMD merely transcribes, free of charge, the printed GRO indexes - we can only work from these.
