Hi, I'm trying to find a death cert. for a Mary A Maggs, born in 1880 and apparently died in Bristol in 1941 or thereabouts. Can anyone help please. Mary |

Was Maggs her maiden name or married name? Have you searched the full BMD indexes on Ancestry? Sam x |

Hi Sam, Maggs was her married name, King was her maiden name. I don't know how to search on BMD.....I don't even know the web site. Mary |

This is the site: http://www.ancestry(.)co.uk/search/rectype/vital/freebmd/bmd.aspx?o_iid=23455&o_lid=23455&o_it=21417&offerid=0%3a723%3a0 You will have to search each year quarter by quarter (and remove the brackets from the URL first!). Sam x |

Have you removed the brackets after 'ancestry'? The easiest way is to copy and paste the link into the address bar at the top and then remove the set of brackets. Sam x |

Maryann, Did you copy and paste that address in or type it out by hand? It should work. Try again. Rose |
