On 27 April, FamilySearch added over 6.4 million UK (England) records in four collections to the Full Text Search collection.
United Kingdom, England, Deaths, from 1922 to 1938
United Kingdom, England, Marriages, 1897
United Kingdom, England, Properties, 1961
United Kingdom, England, Religious, from 1792 to 1814
The records are a very mixed bag. I hoped a search of just the updates would be possible. Judging by the types of records returned and their dates, I recommend instead doing a whole corpus search for your term (name) of interest, then filtering down by place and date range.


It sure would be nice if they would allow full-text searching in specific collections. That said, at work I’ll search for the 1897 marriage of my great-grandparents to see if there’s anything I missed.
