Title: UK BDM Exchange
Post by: Ticker on Sunday 03 October 04 18:40 BST (UK)
Does anyone use the UK BDM Exchange site at http://www.ukbdm.co.uk/

The site allows you to enter full details on any certificates you may have in your possession and then allows full searches.  Its a great idea but there are not that many entries on it yet.  Obviously the more who use it the more useful it will be.

Looks a good idea.

After reading your email, I registered and will start listing tomorrow.  Figure that i might as well share the information I have collected and I just might meet someone who is looking for the same family.  You inspired me!
- If only there were somebody putting in my names???

This is a great site, I have just discovered information about one of my gr grandmothers sisters family and am now collecting the info I have to send off to the person concerned.  Next step is to list all the certificates I have on the site in the hope I can help someone.

Just a reminder to use this site.  It's a great idea, but the database is so tiny at the moment its not a great deal of use.  It has potential though.

Ticker  - I found a Timon for you - in my illustrated Shakespeare - Timon of Athens. Any good?
O well, better luck next time.

No, good sir, 'twas poor Yorick that thee knew well.

Yes, from Hamlet I believe.  Unfortunately I don't know my Timon of Athens in spite of him being my 14th cousin 6 times removed so I used a little poetic licence!  ;D ;D ;D
