Hi I have just tried the 'Hugh Wallis' its great. Thanxs so much for sharing this info. its so much faster. Cheers lesley :~)

Wow this is really good, thanks for the tip. Gloria x

The box is at the top right hand corner of the page. Perhaps if you are putting your rellies surname in and nothing is coming up it is because they are not there. It only works with surnames. Christian names don't work. If you put nothing in the box then search, you should get the whole batch.

Hi Again Looby! (Long time no hear) After you have clicked onto the numbers in Illogan, there is a little box up in the top right hand corner of the page - where you enter your ancesters surname! Good Luck! Going to work now, but will join you again later

Hi Kim - I agree that it is so useful to be able to do this. Saves you having to trawl through everyone in the county on the IGI. I usually get into it by putting 'IGI Hugh Wallis' into Google and there it is!! Because the parishes are listed, it also saves you from looking on the IGI for something that isn't there because all parishes are not covered. The Hugh Wallis list will let you know whether the parish you want is on.

Yes, Hugh Wallis has worked very hard doing this. It's been there for a few years. Joy

Hi Kim, thanks for that tip, seems like we are in the dark ages. Can't wait to see if it works for my Scottish rellies as well. Thanks. Hilary

Trust a man to come along and simplify things!!! Cheers Bob!!! xxx (Think it would be a good idea to put this Hugh chap in title of this thread)

Yes, I just looked, its Hugh Wallis' batch numbers. Oh, I thought it may have something different to the family search - one day I will find mine.
