Just wondered if anyone subscribed to Find My Past. At the moment I subscribe to Ancestry and Genealogist but I am cancelling Genealogist after Christmas and just wondered if it would be worth subscribing to Find My Past, if I would gain anything by doing this as well as Ancestry. Find My Past also has some of the National Burial Index.

I read something on the Family History on Line website that it was transferring most of its data to Find My Past. As I use FHOL on occasion to view the unfilmed 1851 census, by just buying a few credits, just wondered if anyone knew anything about this too.

Thanks for any help

Thanks Kathleen, I would get that on Ancestry though wouldnt I, just wondered if anyone knew what benefits I would get by subscribing to the two of them.

It may be worth it in the future for FMP will have apparently exclusive access to the 1911 Census.

Thanks for your replies, it was just a suggestion from OH to stop subscribing to Genealogist and try something different, maybe I will stop it and just keep Ancestry for a while.

Thanks again
