sorry that didn't come out right. I should have said the American rather than the UK site. (put in the dot com etc. and it didn't come up!)

Hi - I had some similar problems. Just couldn't find the free BMD on there sometimes, but KNEW I had used it before. Then I realised that I had been using the .com site rather than the .co.uk one. They seem to vary and have access to different links!

I've never quite worked out what triggers what database-links when I go into Ancestry. Sometimes it's quite easy to find what I'm after and at other times.... (better not type that!). Christine
