Something odd is happening with the search for deaths. I'm finding that if you add the year of birth (if known), the results may come back nil whereas if you leave the birth year off you get several pages of deaths for peple with that name. If you click on each result in turn it brings up the birth year.

Thank heavens for that. Hated having to go through every quarter of every year.

Well it is only today they changed the heading for deaths.

Certainly not been advertising it.
