Jackie,,



If you use FMP...save any records to your computer, I save to Documents then use as and when,

FMP doesnt save records on its site,so download everytime.

Once you access the info you can save it to your PC. But no need to buy credit's if you want a look up just give the names and area and years of birth and we can take a look :-)

Researching:
Surname Fahse. Germany. Essex .South East London My avatar is one of our wedding photos of 1957
