Hi All, I cannot access LDS site and need to for my research. IGI in particular also need to check 1881 census. Is it my comp. or something else do you think. I click on Bookmark go through Google and Page not found comes up. Many thanks, Sandra

Sandra The LDS and IGI sites have been inaccessible today - its not you, or your computer. However, I think they are working OK now. If you're still having problems, let me know what you want to find out and I'll see if I can get it for you. Helen

Hi Helen, I still cannot access. I am looking for James Hannell born 1813 in Herts. I think he is on IGI and his dad is John, Mother Mary. I wanted to scroll down page and see if I could click on Christenings or Baptisms and see if any other Hannells born to these parents. Usually there is a number at bottom of page and you click on and then enter just surname and other names come up. For British Isles. Many thanks if you can help. Sandra

Sandra James was christened on 05 December 1813 at Saint John & All Saints, Hertford, parents John & Mary. I've just checked the batch no. CO47871. Your James is the only Hannell - I checked all the Hs in case there was a mistranscription, and also looked for Annell. No result. Helen

Hi Helen, Thanks for replying. I was afraid of that. There must have been Brothers and sisters somewhere I think. The father did move to Westminster, London, Middlesex, but don't know when. Perhaps more children were born there. Thankyou for your help, Sandra

I had problems yesterday too. Lets hope they sort it out soon

Hi All, I am with BT/Yahoo Broadband and also use Norton AV and Firewall and thought it might be that. BT also updated their webmail and initially had problems and still do on and off. Why is it some people seem to ba able to access LDS today though? Very weird. Sandra

Hi all Do anyone of you know why the site is down? its been down for a long time now bit of a pain. tracy

Sooooo frustrating isn't it - let's hope whatever thay have done is mega - we deserve it after it being out for so long. Gaynor

I've just tried it and didn't have a problem. I was on yesterday and got a few 'page cannot be displayed' messages but tried again and it was fine. I can never remember the addy so always Google it and click on the 2nd one down that takes you straight to the search page. Jeanette
