You are not alone, I was thinking there must be an issue with the site.

Thanks for replies all. I think I can now possible recall seeing a scheduled servicing warning in red caps when I accessed the site a few days ago, so perhaps it is that, hopefully will be back tomorrow, possibly with more records :)?

I think the site said it would be down for the weekend when I was on a few days ago

Yes, I remember reading on the site that it was down for maintenance.

I noticed they had added 2021 to the Index but when you selected to order any certificates for that year the site would crash. So I imagine they are working on that issue

And I thought it was just me!
Add my query to the ever-increasing pile.

Thanks for that genie! If people can't wait, findmypast does have some of the mother's maiden name data pre 1911.
