The SNWM database seems to have been attacked by a time-lord.
The majority of dates of death are in the 2000's Rolling Eyes

Looks like an upgrade has gone wrong Rolling Eyes

SNWM message:
Stop Press: The update on 19 November has, unfortunately, translated all Dates of Death incorrectly. We apologise for this inconvenience and expect to correct the matter before 25 November. It seems that the Great War Roll has transposed the day and year, e.g 28 February 1917 is shown as 17 February 2028. The Second War and Post 1945 Rolls all seem to show an incorrect default of 1 January 1970. Messages on this aspect will not be answered until the problem is resolved.

Oops Embarassed

All now seems to have been resolved Very Happy

Our sincere apologies; an error had occurred in the date format when the Roll content was expanded recently. That problem was resolved by 9am 23 November; we hope that you can now proceed with confidence and satisfaction.
