Hi Jan:

I wasn't able to get the above link to work, but it does work, if you only enter part of the address http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsea ... html#start

It looks like the IGI (International Genealogical Index) http://www.familysearch.org/eng/Search/ ... search.asp is revising its look to conform with the page styles of other Ancestry.com products.

Hey,

This has been available on the Family Search website for some time now.

http://www.familysearch.org/eng/default.asp

Click the bit where it says 'see prototype for millions of records'

You probably were just so eager to search, ya just missed it. :D

Hi Jan,
I've been using the Pilot site for ages now. They even have the Irish Indexs to BMDs that you would have to pay for on Emerald Ancestors.
Happy Hunting,
Heather

Hi Heather,

I haven't been able to find the Irish Indexes on the pilot programme for a while now...are you still able to view them, and if so, where?

Regards,
Anne H

Hi Anne,
I can still view the Irish Civil Reg. Index's
If you look at the top after making a search you will see...
Narrow by: Place, Date, Collection, Gender, Last Names, First Names, Record Type, Role and Event Type
Click Collection and on the right side of the list 2nd down you will see...
Ireland, Civil Registration Index's 1845-1958
And Bob's your Uncle.
Happy Hunting,
Heather
