Can I suggest you try the following search which may help you better understand the problems:
John Fowler Ross died 1989 Manchester - I am checking if he left a will. I have no other information
I input surname Ross and christian name John plus year of death
Search tells me 176 pages have been found. However - first page is BAIN & it then proceeds with other surnames starting with B - and onwards. I asked for ROSS!!
Can you explain how BAIN has become ROSS?? [/i]
My goodness Carole, that's some distance from your request & will be interesting to know the answer.
Why is it, when changes are made & they don't work, when people tell them 'the old system worked fine', they then tell us it didn't & give us a list of why it didn't work?
SP were the same, they took away search facilities which worked fine for us but now they're saying they didn't work
There are many highly experienced Scottish researchers on RC who have never complained about the now defunct search options so who were the people who said there was a problem & how did they find this to be true when nobody on RC ever had a problem, in-fact the opposite as when the options were taken away, that's when the complaints began to roll in
