Phil Ancestry.com does require membership for everything. However, they do offer a 2-week trial that you can sin up for. If you have used it before, just create a throw away email addy and gain a free signup if you don't want to pay. There are lots of free email sign ups out there. Just dont forget to wright your sign in info down while it is in use. Good luck There is no finer love anywhere than that between a man and a woman!
