You are quite right Marion, we should be congratulating this company for
putting these records on line for free, they are a great help and I really
cannot understand anyone who gets upset because a recent death, baptism or
marriage appears online when it can be found quite easily by other methods.
These people seem rather 'precious' to me, they should 'wake up and smell
the roses' and stop threatening to tell their local MP. Next thing they
will want banned are the census records - dear god we might find out that
they had a great grandmother who had a couple of illegitimate children. So
what? Several of my greats did and what of it, I dont mind, good luck to
them. Just shows they weren't as morally uptight as some of us seem to be
today.
