Re: Free Search
I have to agree with Retlaw. Be wary of free offers. Though ages ago I did take advantage of a free two-week offer from Ancestry, don't think they asked for my card details (that would have put me off straight away) but I cancelled after one week to make sure I didn't go past the 2 weeks and thus start owing them a subscription.
The Library here gives free access to Ancestry but only for one hour a day - not long enough to find out much, though better than nothing.
Anyway, I think that personally I have come to a dead end (pardon the pun) with the research of his lot and mine. Gone back a long way, even Ancestry can't tell me more. Ancestry is a mine of information and very useful but it pays to remember that if you access family trees other people have developed the true facts are not always as written - so much has been copied from others without it being authenticated. Watch for dates that don't make sense, for instance.
