	I don't think there is, but am latching onto this thread to see if someone else has a different answer! Merry

	The only national BMD index that I know of for USA is the Social Security Death Index - however, that only covers deaths, from about 1962 onwards. Other BMD indexes, where they exist, are on a state by state basis. Ancestry has quite a few, but you need a USA or World subscription in order to access them. Richard
