Hi all Me, I have been had! Here's a reply to my email from the Shropshire list. >Surely National Archivist (Thursted Third Party Limited) UK company >registration 3745789, is entirely different to the National Archives. >The former do however give a link to the National Archives as to how to >search for wills etc. Jo. So.... I have had the wool pulled over my eyes, again! I would have thought at my age I was very street-wise and would not be caught out such as the above, but just goes to show you, you can be mislead no matter what your age is. National Archivist has absolutely nothing to do with National Archives, but what a play on words, eh? Why do people do this? Why try to pull the public in with a change of one or two letters? Grrrrr, makes me a little angry that folk can do this and get away with it. It's not really fair to the general public to be sucked in like this, yet it is legal, no doubt about that. I am just so disappointed that these things are going on in the field of genealogy. No doubt there will be many people who will defend these web-sites, and they have every right to do so, but it leaves me rather sad that clarity and association is not clearly shown. One would expect that National Archivist would put a note on their website to say that they had no association with the government website National Archives. Good luck Graham
