I hope this is the correct list for my query. I signed up to Genealogy bank for two months, Feb.& Mar 2009, then canceled my account. Last month, Apr 2009, I went to GB to search the Free Soc. Sec Death Index a couple of times. When I got my Credit Card Statement yesterday, Genealogy Bank had charged my Card for 19.95.for the month of April. Do I have to pay to search the SSDI? Lloyd

This free database provides helpful family history information including name, birth date, death date and last known residence. Search for free. The key words are *search* for free, details would be chargeable I would have thought Best wishes Nivard Ovington, in Cornwall (UK) >I hope this is the correct list for my query. > I signed up to Genealogy bank for two months, Feb.& Mar 2009, then > canceled my account.
