Hi All,

Been researching for years now, have got a lot of information correct (with regards to BMD certificates) and am working towards a pedigree chart. I am now interested in finding out where they were all buried. The majority of mine were born and died in the East End of London (which was Middlesex but now Tower Hamlets earlier). Does anyone know if the NBI covers this area. I don't really want to spend a lot of money on purchasing the NBI if it doesn't cover the area very well

Also, areas my lot come from are Wiltshire, Scotland, Kent and one in Somerset. and also some in Bedfordshire

Thanks for any info
Kind regards
Angela

Dear all

I too have the NBI, it is the biggest waste of money I have ever spent on this hobby. But am happy to do look-ups if needed. I think out of about 200 look-ups I have done so far, I have found just two burials.
