Does anyone a good website to search BMD indexes for Northern Ireland. I use Cheshire BMD loads and find it really useful, but can't find a northern ireland equivalent.

Any help would be appreciated

Cheers

Try irishgenealogy.ie (new site to promote tourism ), signposting index good gives spouses for marriages ,Also ifhf site for county can search for individual . Then you can pay 5 euros for detailed info that you are sure of, i haven't tried this yet!!
You may like to find free1901 and 1911 censuses on national archives , Ireland site.
All these are for the whole of Ireland ,NI too!
You could also try the LDS sites, try pilot search,

I hope this helps,
Happy hunting,

thanks for your help

I've tried the sites that you've listed they are good, but not as comprehensive as the england and wales ones

The census sites are fab though :)

Cheers

The island was one country prior to the partition in 1922.

The household returns and ancillary records for the censuses of Ireland of 1901 and 1911, which are in the custody of the National Archives of Ireland, represent an extremely valuable part of the Irish national heritage. Read more about their digitisation.
All thirty-two counties for 1901 and 1911, searchable by all information categories, are now available on this site.
