Most definitely Ancestry and you get a LOT more records to check and you have 24/7 access, no units nonsense.

Definetly use Ancestry....... the credits on Genes work out really expensive. You can get a free 14 day trial with Ancestry, but you do have to give your card details, so if you decide not to subscribe after the 14 days, make sure you have already removed your card details.... ancestry is adding extra things all the time, definetly worth the money if you have a lot to look up.

Cheaper in the long run to use Ancestry. You pay once for the year and get unlimited use ie: you don't buy credits. You can buy just three months use also. Hope this helps you.

Hi can anyone give me some advice. If I want to look up quite a lot of records is it cheaper to use the ancestry site or genes. If I subscribe to ancestry does that mean I don't have to buy credits to see records. Thank you to anyone that can offer me some help.
