Thanks to Both Erics, Glynis, Jan and Louise. I went to the library this morning to see how both worked but I didn't have a very successful morning as the librarian was busy with other people when I could have done with help. I found some census on Ancestry but there was problem printing them, I will have to enlarge them on my printer. Seems there is a problem with it. The librarian said I could print them out on FMP but couldn't find them to print!! So this weekend I am going to have a free trial period with both. Its not easy teaching an old dog new tricks. I could cope with Family Search as it used to be and free BMD and even Lancashire and Cheshire Free BMD as they were all straight forward. Any way thanks again for all your suggestions. Carol
Hi Carol, Just a word of warning.. If you go for a Free trial period, you still have to put details of your credit card etc. before you can search. That is fine, but please be sure to cancel out a couple of days before the free trial is over, or you will find they will debit your account with a payment before you know it. Also if you try an LDS Family History centre you will get more direct help.
