Link: Watt Library online index of BMDs

[Rakiura John]

Forfarian's link is now also broken. Has anyone recently managed to access this resource?

[Forfarian]

Try https://www.inverclyde.gov.uk/community-life-and-leisure/heritage-services

Wish web sites wouldn't keep changing their links!

[Rakiura John]

Thanks. That link gets you to the Watt Library section but it says info can be be accessed by visiting them. Can't find anything about the "online index of BMDs". Perhaps they no longer provide that resource online?

[Forfarian]

I don't know.

Why not e-mail them and ask them? It would be a pity if the resource were lost.

I tried a few of the pdfs from here, seem to be OK

Or try a google search (I am experimenting here!)
"www.inverclyde.gov.uk"  +  Intimations  +  pdf

The files come up in the search results, they can be downloaded, i.e.
Intimations 1851-1864

Gosh, I've gone and found the long lost Diocese of London Consistory Court Wills index!
Compiled by volunteers at the LMA (now the London Archives) between 2001 and 2007

Amazing what the Wayback Machine can do!
Mind you, I think the entries, or some of them, have been incorporated into their catalogue now.

Does it work for you, Rakiura John?
