Hiya ,

Not knocking Latter Day Saint or anything but over the year I have come across a lot of mistakes in year of births and parishes...... sometimes whoever gives them the information that information can be wrong . I have proved it with dates and parishes ....so you can't always take it as Gospel.


They are a good kick start to begin ....was for me until my brains ended up like scrambled eggs years later because of mistakes in births and marriages there. It can really get you on the wrong track.

Also I had all of one of all ancestors on their 1881 census cds , then when I purchased the 1at and 2nd addition of British Isle Births and Marriages...none of them where to be seen and I so contacted Latter Sts and asked how come? and they told me (5 yrs ago) that they will probably be on the 3rd addition which would be available soon......hate to be hangin' by the neck as its still not available....

No one's perfect I s'pose.

Denise
