So, I joined "Vital Records" at their site on a monthly basis this weekend for $5.95 and I can cancel at any time. I thought I'd try it for a month or so and see if it is worth it. I am not sure yet what to think of it!! :) I did the same with GenealogyBank.com a few months ago and did find it useful for a while and might go back. You can join some of these sites on a monthly basis and cancel if you find it isn't what you wanted and/ or needed or just couldn't afford anymore! Is vital records the only addition to Godfery? I miss the Newspapers the most! Sheila

Does Godfrey have information that Ancestry does not have? Or, if any of you are Texans, does it have information that TexShare does not have? Thanks-- Donna

These are the specific links they list in the basic Godfrey resources package under Texas. This should give you an idea of the types of information available.

I miss the Newspapers the most! Sheila _____________________________- Godfrey currently offers four levels of online membership at four price levels from $35 to $110. The second (Blue) level gives access to their various databases plus NewspaperArchive.com at $65. That's what I have had this past year. The third level (Green) offers World Vital Records instead of NewspaperArchive.com at $80, and the $110 (Gold) level offers both. Since there already are a number of vital record links in the basic membership, I wondered what additional vital records I might expect for an additional $45. I contacted Godfrey and the following is what they replied about World Vital Records-- Exclusive Data from Everton Publishers - Provides exclusive data from Everton including over 200 issues of the Genealogical Helper Magazine (1946-2006). That is more than 40,000 pages of information to help you with your genealogy! They have also indexed more than 3.6 million names from Everton's pedigree files and family group sheets. Also included is access to the historic Everton Library, plus they add new data every month. This information is not available anywhere else online. SmallTownPapers® Collection - Discover your ancestors like never before.the people, places and events as reported in real time in their local newspaper. World Vital Records was selected to provide access to this archive of exclusive newspaper content, not available from any other genealogy source! This gives you access to a completely searchable digital archive that features small-town newspapers back to 1846. They currently offer nearly 1 million pages from this unique archive, and are adding more than 100,000 pages each month! Quintin CDROM Library - Get access to more than 10,000 exclusive databases that would cost over $4000 if you purchased the CDs separately! These will be coming online over the next few months. These are valuable and hard-to-find materials from many different sources.
