Help and advice needed please
I am kind of new to this still but have been looking on the FreeBMD and Family Search etc and have got back to my G G Granddad but would like to see what else i can find. but am now thinking of maybe subscribing to a Genealogy site such as Ancestry or Find my family etc can anyone tell me what they have which the other free sites don't have as to me to spend a lot of money if there is nothing else to be gained from subscribing to it I know it seems a lot of you belong to Ancestry so help and advice would be much appreciated thanks

Hi Pam - you can find some free records online, but if you are seriously researching your family, you will need to subscribe to either Ancestry or Find My Past. You can of course go to your local library and have free access to Ancestry, most local libraries offer this.

Poor Rob
- I'm a pensioner, but I'm not old age yet - maybe next year when I get to 71 and I'll probably still be working

Hi
You should have access to Ancestry at Clevedon library http://www.n-somerset.gov.uk/Leisure/li ... ary.aspx#b
and old newspapers too http://www.n-somerset.gov.uk/Leisure/li ... vices.aspx
(and just ignore any banter between Rob and Auntie-Em - they love each other really)
