Looks like it will have to be a long slog through the indexes for my Isabella Smith then :(.  I was hoping to see if she might have remarried before she died, which could be anywhere from 1901 to the 1940s realistically.  At least she should be easier to find than her husband Thomas ::)

Here's the reply, very speedy

Barbara,
   it's off the air due to administrative issues. I hope to have an
alternative site available
later tonight. It will be accessible via the "Local BMD" menu within the
main UKBMD
site at http://www.UKBMD.org.uk/
The main page of UKBMD will announce its availability when it's ready.


Hope that helps all, Barbara

From what I can gather they haven't renewed the site (ie. they haven't paid to own the domain for this year):

"Registration status:
 Renewal required.
 *** This registration has been SUSPENDED. ***"

Hi, Andrew,
yes have just had another email from the webmaster:

Barbara,
   I've just finished setting up an alternative site whilst the main
address is unavailable.
It's at www.YorkshireBMD.info or as usual you can access it via the
"Local BMD"
section of UKBMD. Please let the rootschat folk know. The original
address should
be back in a day or two, and both addresses will operate in parallel
from then on.
