Are you aware that a lot of libraries have access to the Ancestry web site? I think there's usually a time limit on (probably an hour at a time), don't know if they have someone who can help you out with it. I think heard that some libraries have access to more than one genealogy web site. It may be worth checking out.
Not sure where you are based Hope
but if you are near to Dudley Archives they offer help via the friends of Dudley archives
with showing you how to research your family history one to one
they will show you how to use ancestry and get you started.
