Ancestry/Genealogy Websites.

Thanks for all the suggestions folks, and sorry for the delay in responding; got a new arrival in the house, so as you can imagine it’s currently a bit chaotic here in Creosote Towers. Thanks again.

Ancestry.co.uk are offering a few days free during remembrance.
To search service records,but i think its only pensions and medals,but its a start.

See the little guy below? If one goes back far enough….

Ancestry.co.uk give you two weeks free searching and you would be surprised how much information you can get.

Unfortunately you may get hooked on the research and the Forum will take a back seat.

I am back to the early 1600’s in Scotland with a suggestion if we could tie up some loose ends of entries in the 1100’s.:)

You may need ScotlandsPeople.gov.uk which will cost you £6.00 for a number of searches, no free ride here.

Or if you PM’ed the details someone could always have a look for you and see what’s available, bearing in mind that it might not be a great deal owing to the fact that many records were destroyed by enemy action in World War Two.

Public libraries in the UK also have access to Ancestry.co.uk. Not sure whether its the full international access but you should be able to access the WW1 files along with the census returns
