A couple of questions/comments on the new site:

On the previous site, there was a link on the Parish Registers page to a database of what records were transcribed by whom, for what years, etc. I don't find that link exists (or is very well hidden.) Can you point me to where that information is found now or restore that feature to the new site? (The information is necessary in order to create sources for the information obtained here.)

While the design of the new site conforms to current trends, the actual implementation makes reading the search results in the Parish Registers difficult. I use Firefox as a browser and find that I'm now faced with two scroll bars, side-by-side, both of which have to be manipulated to view the longer records, or to even see the initial results. At least with my browser, about a quarter of the page at the bottom is unused. It doesn't appear that the site is set up to sense larger displays and is defaulting to an 800x600 view (long ago outdated.)

Thanks,

Mark

thanks for your feedback - we will investigate the screen res - I have tested on various resolutions and devices from iPhone thru to 1900x1200 flat-panel

The list of transcribed records is currently not available- we will reconsider how/where to reinstate

regards
