Their notice was only in black - but it's surrounded by rotating WOWs, so I thought that bright blue might make up for that.

Forenames search facility added on some Local BMD sites

I've just been looking at Lancs BMD - and went onto look at the multiple-search, Bath BMD and Cheshire BMD - and found that, of those, all but Bath have added the option to search by forenames instead of just initials. This will be a great improvement for people searching for more common surnames!

I haven't checked the rest yet - and have to dash imminently - but will try to remember to have a look later and update this message.

Christine

UPDATE 1:
Some more sites have added MMN on the birth search, and ages for earlier deaths.
