Thanks, Gillian.

It was easy enough to search for the name Glasscodine (4 matches) but not so easy to search for Thomas Morgan - about 500,000 matches and even if I restrict it to the year 1893 there are 25,000. There doesn't seem to be a way of searching (as opposed to browsing) for a particular date rather than a whole year, or am I just missing it? Ah, putting the name in quotes reduces the number but there are still way too many. But it is letting me filter them by month and then day now, though I would rather put those into my initial search.

Also I'm not sure how to send in feedback for the beta test - the Help info says "Contact Us
This HELP page will be developed over the next few months in response to feedback and enquiries from users.
Please use the Contact Us link located on the bottom of every page for additional help on using Welsh Newspapers Online Beta."

Does that mean we should use the Contact Us link to send in feedback? :confused:
