Thanks Nivard. I'll have to check it out later although on quickly looking all the sites I checked out wanted me to pay to see results. As I'm still very new to this I'm sure there are ways and means of getting some info free initially....I just need to work out how LOL. I have already paid out a subscription to Genes Reunited so am reluctant to spend more just yet. I am sure also that once I look into it further there will be some fascinating information that will really helpful. Once again, thank you for sharing cheers Sheila Longden nee Tait (born in Edmonton London but living in Australia) Subject: [MDX] London Ancestors guide from familysearch Hi all As its quiet I thought some might be interested in this free guide from familysearch https://familysearch.org/blog/free-guide-london-ancestors/ Not made my way through it as yet but it looks interesting -- Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) **************************************

Hi Sheila The site I posted from familysearch is not so much a catalogue of free resources but more a sign post of where to find them Its often knowing where to find records with London research as its such a concentrated area All pay sites have their value, some more than others but much will depend upon your needs and requirements There is a lot of information available for free but some you have to resort to paying for If you get stuck the best thing to do is to post to the list as almost certainly someone will have been there before you and will be able to point you in the right direction if not help directly Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 27/07/2012 11:15, Sheila and Brian Longden wrote: > Thanks Nivard. > I'll have to check it out later although on quickly looking all the sites I > checked out wanted me to pay to see results.

Thanks Nivard I plan to do that. I'm enjoying the journey and will post a bit more when I get stuck...I get easily sidetracked by interesting sites LOL cheers Sheila Hi Sheila The site I posted from familysearch is not so much a catalogue of free resources but more a sign post of where to find them Its often knowing where to find records with London research as its such a concentrated area All pay sites have their value, some more than others but much will depend upon your needs and requirements There is a lot of information available for free but some you have to resort to paying for If you get stuck the best thing to do is to post to the list as almost certainly someone will have been there before you and will be able to point you in the right direction if not help directly Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 27/07/2012 11:15, Sheila and Brian Longden wrote: > Thanks Nivard. > I'll have to check it out later although on quickly looking all the sites > I > checked out wanted me to pay to see results.

Thanks Nivard, one of the most useful research indexes for some time now, especially in that it is including MDX & Surrey. Cheers Graham Melbourne Oz
