Hi Barry, I think we communicated via genesreunited recently. Most of what you say about answering where possible on list is true, but I think a lot of folk are list shy and do tend to answer off line, but it may well be no one has the answer to the query, or on holiday etc. Nivard is not one of those who answers offline, he has always been there to help and I wonder where some of our other old correspondants are like Roy Stockdill, I havent seen him about for a couple of years on any of the lists I am on, he was very helpful as well and others. Like yourself I too am a pensioner and it is hard to purchase a full subscription but you can take them out for a month, use them constantly and exhaust all you need in that time. Rootschat is very helpful and free and you can take out an account with familysearch and receive images, some still go to findmypast, but I think it is only about $24.95 for a months subscription to that as well and that isnt much is it? That along with familysearch and of course our rootsweb list is good. Not sure what subs ancestry have, but I wouldnt think there is a months subscription. British Newspaper have one, but then you can sometimes get those free at the Libraries same with Ancestry if you have a public library card, you can view hat there, at least you can in Australia. Keep the queries up, there are a lot of budding super slueths out there still.

EdieAncestry do a monthly subscription and pay per view The library edition didn't have all the resources available to subscribers last time I used it. Watch out for special offers and 'free'  access times such as bank holidays (Easter is coming up)Always check any information that is not a primary source i.e. images of records. Any index or transcription is only as good as the person who has done it. I have tonight been looking at my Fenton tree on Ancestry as they had just sent me some 'hints'.  And yes there are errors including wrong marriage on another's tree which has been copied by others, purchase of certificate or check of pr's at notts archives would have the correct one.
