Thanks, Dara. I'll give that one a go as well.

Hi All, one worrying thing I've found in the last day or so is a record on the search pilot for a  birth Edward O'Brien vol.2.page 687,birth year 1891.I have this cert from the record office in Dublin and the cert reads George O'Brien birth 1894 parents Patrick O'brien & Hannah McPeth(could be something similar for maiden name)address 20 Albert Place Dublin.It created a problem for me because
Edward is a very elusive person to find and also because he was called George by his wife but Edward on official documents  from marriage cert onwards.I wonder how many more like his there are on the L.D.S site.

Taidquest, how have you put those two birth records together? They would appear to be totally different people 

I'm still getting very random results on the Pilot Search. I get the best result by putting all the info into the initial search box, the filters seem to weed too many people out.
Must try the Beta search

Hi Agho,yes I have looked at them side by side
and the quarter is even the same on both,I had thought maybe this can happen as births are 2 different years but to have both the Lds details
and the actual index find 2 with identical surnames 3 years apart? seems a bit of a coincidence.                                                   Anne
of course you're right Agho,blame it on my frazzled brain trying to find
my Edward.
                                                  best wishes.Anne

I know that feeling so you're not alone

I presume you've tried the Dublin records on www.irishgenealogy.ie - more records to be added tomorrow but mainly C of I I think.

[Taidquest]

Yes Agho,I've gone back to checking about five years worth of births on the pilot site that I don't already have certs for and trying to match them up
with baptisms on irishgenealogy.ie/ It's also handy to search the baptisms by street name on that site,I can't be certain but I think they are already
adding some records.

It is curious, if I search for David Angland's marriage in 1911 Cork, Ireland exact match only using Angland the record is there and if I search for only David he is there. However if I leave both name fields blank, shouldn't I get all marriages? I get many but David Angland is not one of them.

There seems to be an upper limit to the number of results shown, so very general searches may not be accurate or complete. e.g. if you search for all the Murphys or all the Patricks without restricting the year, not all will be shown.
