Is it just me or have they jumped the gun by a few hours?

I've been able to view the digitised images this morning, a fantastic new resource.

Hi Gaffy,

Very exciting isn't it! I have to go out this morning - I hope it hasn't crashed when I come back.

Groundbreaking. And there isn't any charge ( yet! here's hoping it continues).  :)

They are online now...mostly.

Tad earlier than this morning.

Time this was on the Ireland General board, (it's on the Dublin board) but I think a sticky in Ireland Resources is needed.

My husband's surname is one of those that sometimes there is an 'e' or sometimes an 'a' and sometimes an added letter - we have no idea what we are really called! Luckily though it is still an unusual name specific to one particular county and area so have just been able to confirm one of my suspicions re a marriage through the father's details so am really pleased.

Is it just me or has it stopped working - every time I try a search in Civil records it defaults back to Church records.
