----- Original Message ----- Thanks Peter for that update. I do hope that the ERO does not get too greedy! Unfortunately as genealogical research becomes more popular throughout the world, everyone wants to put their hand in our pockets. Ah well, I guess in this age of crippling cuts to many government services (in UK & USA) it was to be expected.  I do advise everyone to keep checking into  www. Family S earch.org (LDS) website as their records are almost updated daily. They at this time have no plans to make any charges for their records.
