No I've not seen this. Looks interesting ....

Thanks for heads up about new Free Reg.  Giving it a go now. Does help if you put the surname and forename the right way round ::) :-[

Looks good, but would benefit from less wasted space so that the need for scrolling through results could be reduced.

The old version is still available - via FreeBMD  :)
Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.

Yes I know the old version is still available, but the new version has better functionality with respect to searching dates.

The new site looks good! ;D

But remember that it is a work-in-progress.

My family lived in a small village, Bures St Mary, in Suffolk.
Currently (last amended 19th March) there are only 936 records; dating from 1592 until 1660.

So I will watch the site with interest! ;D
