I think that that is the idea - so much information that I will need to keep my subscription going for decades. The north east of England - and I include Yorkshire (though some say that is in the Midlands (grin)) - is my key area for detailed research. All other parts of the globe are, of course, included in my study, but I don't have easy / cheap access to many of their "vital records" (even if those events were actually recorded, let alone that the records have survived).

Hello All Just to add my contribution. I think the North West of England is sorely neglected by many. I may be wrong but that's the feeling I get.
