There is a daily and a weekly free Ancestry Genealogy Newsletter. Some of the information is of no interest to me and some of it is quite interesting and educational. I subscribe to the daily newletter which also lists a free database of either information or maps which are normally available only to paying subscribers. There is a Table of Contents at the beginning of the newsletter so I briefly browse through the listings and either choose to read further or use my delete button.
