Karen...here's what happened The test for Heritage Quest was for libraries and citizens of West Virginia. We are considering offering this database as a service to all West Virginia citizens through their libraries. Although the test was intended for West Virginians, the URL and passwords were posted nationwide. Our hits went from a few dozen a day to 7,500 a day. Not what we intended. If we do re-institute the test of this wonderful database it will most likely be through IP recognition at the state's 176 public libraries. If we do decide to offer the database as a service to the state's libraries, IP recognition will be part of the signon. So, spread the word. Move to West Virginia. Get great library service.

Have a William Farr (full age) who married Sarah Anne Jones (full age) (father Thomas Jones Coalminer) in 1877 in Oldham. I know that their grandson played Rugby League for Wales so there must be a connection to Wales somewhere. Might be worth keeping a note in case anything comes up.

Any tie ins? Helen. Helen Whilst I have no wish to stifle discussion on the List, I didn't know if you were aware that there is a separate List for FARR in the British Isles (details below). I set this up last year, as I was aware that many people researching UK FARRs did not subscribe to the FARR-L list as they found it too general and mainly serving the US. We have currently 30+ members and I cross-post details from the FARR List if I think they are useful.
