A Good Find........or Not!

I came across this site today. It really is quite brilliant, providing parish records for Family History enthusiasts.

I've been researching my family tree for years and decided to check out the burials. Well, I knew that g.g.g.grand-father married a Betty Brindle in 1856 and my records showed that Betty's father was Ewan Brindle. That was the point when it all went to rats. Ewan's daughter Betty, died when she was seventeen! My Betty went on to have several children and carted on until 1903!

Back to the drawing board and months of research has gone out of the window.

I can't get the link to work.

Is it just me, or does it work ok for other people?
