No, that would be rather pointless wouldn't it as they already have access This is a free three days, as a subscriber I had an email stating they are adding three days to my subscription which I thought a good gesture During the three days no doubt it will be inundated and slow to work which is usually the case They have just released a new version of search which personally I find much worse than the most recent version But its free for all for these three days Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 04/03/2015 22:52, ABH via wrote: > Isn't this just for those who have a subscription to one of their sites? > > > This weekend we’re giving you the chance to bring your past to life by exploring our collection of over 2 billion records and 10 million newspaper pages, absolutely free. > From 10pm on Friday, March 6th (AEST) to 10pm Monday, March 9th (AEST) our records from around the world will be viewable at no cost, meaning > you can build your family tree, for a whole weekend, on us.

You have just pointed out that as a SUBSCRIBER you received the email. I think the point of the exercise is to encourage you to take out a world wide subscription. It does not mention extending your existing sub!! -----Original Message----- From: cornish-gen-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:cornish-gen-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Nivard Ovington via Sent: Thursday, 5 March 2015 9:29 AM To: cornish-gen@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [CORNISH-GEN] free record access No, that would be rather pointless wouldn't it as they already have access This is a free three days, as a subscriber I had an email stating they are adding three days to my subscription which I thought a good gesture During the three days no doubt it will be inundated and slow to work which is usually the case They have just released a new version of search which personally I find much worse than the most recent version But its free for all for these three days Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 04/03/2015 22:52, ABH via wrote: > Isn't this just for those who have a subscription to one of their sites? > > > This weekend we’re giving you the chance to bring your past to life by exploring our collection of over 2 billion records and 10 million newspaper pages, absolutely free. > From 10pm on Friday, March 6th (AEST) to 10pm Monday, March 9th > (AEST) our records from around the world will be viewable at no cost, meaning you can build your family tree, for a whole weekend, on us. ------------------------------- Listmom: ybowers@gmail.com or CORNISH-GEN-admin@rootsweb.com Visit the OPC (Online Parish Clerk) web page for transcription information http://www.cornwall-opc.org/ ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to CORNISH-GEN-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
