The first thing to remember here is that the information comes from ancestry.com. ISTR that there are lots of cautions out there about the quality of the information therein. But having said that, Mundia can be useful, without having to pay anyone. If I'm trying to figure someone's birth or death, I'll take a free look at Mundia. While the information might be very restricted in quantity, I will sometimes glean a year or a place, and that might narrow a search considerably. But not always - there have been a few wild goose chases. So hang onto your money for the time being. Give it a try...but be careful. Paul
