Has anyone used this site?

It's £55 per year which isn't too bad if it has a lot of info (there are other payment options £8 for 72 hours etc.)

But, it's not clear what information is given so wondered whether it's worth even a 72 hour sub.

Anyone tried it?

I've used it a couple of times - just a 72hour pass - it does have a few things which other sites don't have but also, I seem to remember, some extra charges for copies of documents. I subscribe to both Ancestry and Findmypast and would always choose these over other sites as the collections are being expanded all the time.

Best wishes
