Thanks in > advance, Linda I found that there was absolutely nothing in their subscription that was of any use. Now their free "trees" are of use to me. I was particularly disappointed by the census stuff. It not only was useless to me, there were two different census's that had identical data .... this is not encouraging! On the other hand, I did find the Genealogy.com subscription quite useful, however, I completely exhausted it in about three months. Thats is, I exhausted the part I found useful to my own ancestry Now I should add that that the part I was searching lies mostly in Virginia and points south and southwest in the US from 1600-1820 and before that in England and Scotland. After 1845 there were no loose ends at all when I started. I also tried to find my main "dead end" (born 1818) in the Immigration records of the various sites .. all of them ... and no luck.
