Thanks for that Margaret, I have now bought one for £19 including postage. I saw this one before, but not really worth it if it is only a tenner from the suppliers.

£30 from the same site where I told you to look to check the parishes. Beware of ebay sometimes, you can end up paying way over the odds. There was a set of 1881 census CD's the other week went for over £50. They are only about £30 new Margaret

Yheir is a pay site called Familyhistoryonline .net and this has lots of burials and other info you can look to see what coverage is there before buying £5 a tiume but lasts quite a while and each look up is from 5p to 10p I have found it very good for suffolk doesnt cost to have a look even to get up a list of possibles only if you want more info give it a try Sandra

I have it and it's the worst waste of money. Coverage is very patchy some areas less than a 1000. I got it when it first came out and have never found anybody I need on it.

Does anyone know what counties are included on the National Burials Index cd please? I read somewhere that it is a bit patchy, and wondering if it is worth my while buying it. Thanks
