Logged on to my free 72 hours for the census then found not available (no warning before you log on) good trick if you can get away with it. Seems to me the Orgins will play lip service to the SOG to get the databases then unless contracted as tightly as possible dump the free lookups. Dave I was certainly able to access the 1841 and 1871 census details at the end of March as part of my SoG membership. Perhaps this part of their site is down at the moment? Best Wishes Alan

Hi Alan, Yes so was I but I suspect they had dropped a clanger and it should not have been. After reading the small print on site it looks like we want get it again. Oh well another site not worth going to again pity.
