I had this problem at one point - can't remember properly but I think the link that Gale suggested I bookmark wasn't working.  Try logging in again from the invite page 

http://access.gale.com/gdctrial/login.html   this is the link I've bookmarked & it works fine for me thru Firefox

 :) Barbara

Thank you for your help, Barbara. However, that link doesn't appear to work for me either. :( I will bookmark it though and hopefully I'll be able to access it soon.

Thanks again, :)

I just registered and it accepted me and I got in using IE. It looks fascinating so I've added it to my favourites.

I also had trouble getting into the database for a while but managed by going into 'history' then clicking on 'access.gale' and then double click on 'Gale-Instant Trial...' and signing in that way.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

I have found an article in The Times dated Wednesday 28th December 1864. It is a letter to the editor from Edward Sayell of Mentmore, Bucks. In the letter Edward Sayell refers to a' report in the paper dated 22nd Dec of a trail of Joseph Baker (incorrectly described as Baber)'

I cannot find this report can someone please look for me, afraid I'm not too cleaver at finding my way around this site?


Thanks

Carol

Hi ruskie
When I initially registered, from the invitation page - I was immediately admitted.
did you get an email back from them after you registered?
I just did, which gave me the login and password (i imagine to use later when I return to the database on a new session)

Try virtual as the login

cheers
