We have just added another batch of marriage indexes to the North
Wales BMD database; and we would like to thank Mrs Noelle Baston, the
Superintendent Registrar at Hawarden, who has given us every
assistance in making these indexes available.
We have also implemented an addition to the marriage search feature,
developed by Ian Hartas, who writes the software for all these BMD
websites. Occasionally, in the Registrars' marriage indexes, the
same marriage is indexed twice. There are a number of reasons for
this, the most usual one being that the bride had been married before,
and therefore she is indexed under her maiden name and also under her
name from her previous marriage.
The search results will now point this out, and also give access to a
secondary results page, which will list all the names for that
marriage. We see this as a very useful "additional extra" to the
search facility.
Here are the details of today's update:
