These links are supposed to work. However, they are links that are provided as a convenience to resources out on the internet (web) that are not controlled by Legacy. As such, they are subject to change and the Legacy developers don’t get notified until a user raises the issue. This particular link was noted to be broken about a week ago, and should be changed soon. You’re the 3rd or 4th person to identify this problem. The problem with this dataset is that it was moved (sold?) from the British (I think) web site where it had resided to the Fold3 website, which is a subscription website. So even when the link is updated, you still won’t be able to access the data unless you have a Fold3 subscription.

Was doing some checking out at research guidance on the Legacy 8 program and found that a link on the suggested sources on the Goal: Birth tab for Boyd;s Marriage Index, 1538-1840 has a link that cannot be found!!! Are links from the program supposed to work or is it just there for looks? "Boyd's Marriage Index, 1538-1840: This index, compiled from copies of parish marriage registers, Bishop's Transcripts, and marriage licenses, lists over seven million English marriages performed from 1538 to 1840 in over 4,300 different parishes. The index lists the names of the couple, the parish, and the year of the marriage. Once the index information is obtained, you can search the original parish registers. It is not complete. Learn more about this resource by clicking here " I clicked and it came up with "404 - File or directory not found. The resource you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. Can some one let me know about this please?
