Hi, Anyone with a library card [at least in Essex Libraries] can access the DNB through the library website by entering their library ticket number. I am sorry if this does not work outside of Essex. Glynis ----- Original Message ----- From: Alison Ruxton Edna I've managed to get onto www.ancestry.co.uk and the dictionary IS available but only to paying subscribers of which I'm currently not. Perhaps someone on the list has a subscription and could look up the entry for you. The Dictionary of National Biography is under the "Family & Local Histories" categories.

Hi, Thank you Glynis, I really don't want to subscribe to Ancestry on the possibility that TCJ WORTH (b. 1875) might be a relative. Apparently there are many volumes to the set.
