FamilyRelatives.org

Thursday December 15, 2005
The fast growing interest in family history in England and the rest of the UK has sparked the launch and growth of a number of new UK genealogy Web sites and databases over the past year. One of the newest addtions, FamilyRelatives.org, not only offers the entire Civil Registration index, but also includes images of the original index register entries. Over 300 million records are searchable by surname and forename, with 150 million of these records fully searchable on other fields, including age at death or mother's maiden name. The most promising feature is 'Marriage Match,' which helps you to track down spouses. Subscription is based on credits, so you can easily pay as you go.

I really do get very disgusted with these pages that say FREE searches. Than you go on and they say you can’t do a search unless you buy into some program or something like that. What a bunch of baloney. Your not the only one that does this but it ssure gets to be a pain in the rear.

EXACTLY, Nancy Cosgrove! I know the feeling! Just when you think you finally found something on your ancestors, they burst your bubble. If there is a charge, be straight forward and say so, don’t entice people saying it’s free!!
