I don't understand the logic behind this arrangement. Why give the films to the Society of Genealogists whose charges are quite high, when access was free at the London FHS? When I used the FHC at Luton about 20 years ago I had ordered census, parish registers and South African material on microfilms, some for a small amount if sent from Salt Lake City, otherwise free. Are all these records now available online at FamilySearch website? From Merryl Wells of Luton, Beds. E-Mail: merryl.wells@one-name.org GOONS Mem. No. 1757 Reg.
