Find Ancestors

Ancestry search facility.........SUCKS

:-( :-|

I agree Ginns. :-(

I am finding it 'slightly' better if you always use it on 'advanced search' but I really don't like it.

We will see................... ;-) :-0 :-S

Gins, Ref Ancestry,

from my post on another thread, Hope it helps

I have also stuck with the old search because i found the new search hard to adjust to but the new search has changes from when it was first introduced and now you can still get almost all the eliments of the old style search

If you go to the homepage and hover over the search tab, then select say

Birth, Marriage & Death, including Parish

Then on the right of that page it lists "Narrow by Category" and "Featured data collections"

You can select which individuel records collection to search from these menu's as you could with the old search, So not that different to the old search

It works the same for all searches listed under the search tab on the main page

If you don't search a specific Category/collection then it will give you results for all Category/collections which is why you would get loads of unwanted results

Dea, You can still use the advanced search both on the main page or within a specific category or collection

The advanced search tab is still there for all searches

Roy

Thank you Roy - Nice to see you on here <3

I have printed out your instructions and will put them to practice to see if it makes things any better.

I had found the advanced search on the new layout and what I meant to say was that I find it better to use this on the new page rather than the other search.

I am getting on with that O.K. but I still do not like the way the results show.

Not to worry, I will conquer it !

Mr P

The problem I'm not liking is that when you have entered your search info and clicked search, it doesn't show you all the info that you entered?

And what's all the stuff with the 'sliders' !!!!!! Guess it's the 'in thing'

Kettle is on

Big day for The Blades :-)

Morning all :-D


Thanks for putting the kettle on Gins. Big day for the Blades? You mean you have cooked something which has turned out tough and it's going to be a challenge to slice it???? ;-)


Quick breakfast before I go you-know-where. It's a big day for 5 families there today........Baptisms....... :-)


Bacon, tomatoes and mushrooms for Dea........served on a 'bin lid' barm cake. That should keep her going for a short while.... ;-)


Eggy bread for Gins.....sounds as though she needs to keep her strength up!!


~~~

Good morning all :-)

Thank you Cynthia - a whole 'bin lid' all to myself - that will keep me going all day ;-) :-D :-D :-D.............................. delicious <3 <3 <3

and Ginns does make a lovely cuppa !

Thank you both,

Dea Xxx

What about 'that' Jonesey :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

I take it they won then Ginns ?? ;-) :-D :-D

Just had a lovely lunch which was a bit late as I spent half the morning 'phoning Police and Insurance Companies - My lovely Indian neighbours over the road had their car stolen from outside their house :-( :-( :-(

SO glad I keep my lovely old car in the garage ! :-0

Dea Xxx

We did win Dea, and convincingly so :-D

Sorry to hear your neighbours have had their car stolen

Don't worry about yours>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I know Ginns - When I open the door with the key you only have to put the key in about 1/2 a cm and turn, though my son tells me that no one in their right mind would steal it !!! :-( :-( :-(

Dea Xxx

My Goodness - It has been 19degrees here - I think that Spring is coming at last ! :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

I have a wonky and very painful (at times) knee

:-(


The fibula (the bone down the outside of the lower part of your leg) slips out of place ....... I have been taught how to push it back into place, but it is being very obstinate this time!

Cyns ...........


it is the husband who has been left behind :-(


Luckily, he is a very good cook ........ they've always shared the task, so there might be some things he hasn't yet done.

Kettle is on

>>>>>>>>>shower and work

Thank you Ginns,

I will just put on some bacon and eggs to go with that lovely cuppa. ;-)

Hope you have a good day at work.....................

Dea Xxx

Good morning.... :-D


Thank you for breakfast Dea and for the kettle being on Gins. One of the first things for me is a cup of coffee...... :-D


Sylvs.....my comments were about your friend who was bereaved last year and who had been relying on the lady who has just died. <3


We keep our car on the drive as do most folk round here. Everyone seems to have their garages (if they have one), full of stuff they will never use again. :-D

Logically, I could get our car into the garage but....as we are on a slight incline, and next door's garden path is below ours, OH is frightened I will tip over the wall :-S :-S


Off for another of his eye injections this morning................such a fun life!! ;-)

Ey Up~~~~~~~~~~~~


You've been quiet today

I'm pooped....hard day at work, in the treacle mines
