Hi Lindy Free bmd goes up to about 1910,from 1901 to 1915 is only about 3% complete. I will have a look on ancestry,the bmd index is free there by the way,the beta index can be accessed by anyone. Glen

Go to www*ancestry*co*uk (use dots in place of *) On home page scroll down and you will see 1837/1984 BMD index beta.Click on that to search the images. Glen

I think marriages for Leigh for this period are also on the Lancs BMD site http://www.lancashirebmd.org.uk doesn't have the GRO reference though
