Title: Scribes Alcove
Post by: Liz in France on Saturday 06 April 19 23:21 BST (UK)
I haven't researched my Berkeley relatives for a long so went to use Scribes Alcove and it isn't there any more.  Anyone know what has happened to it please.

I presume you are referring to the website?

It would appear that the website no longer exists.

I was indeed looking for the website. 

What a shame it has been removed, it was so useful for people researching that area.  I wonder why it was taken down.

I have tried using the Google Wayback Machine but could not make head nor tail of it.  I will have to trawl through Ancestry in the hope that some of the information I want is there.

Thanks to you both for replying, I did wonder if it was the bad internet connection we have here but am glad it's not.
