I wonder if Susan is thinking of the AncestryZA site?

You may find passenger lists for people travelling to or from the UK and other countries, but that's about it.

Regardless of which site you use to sign in from, the majority of records are England/Wales based.
Even Scottish records are primarily census transcriptions to 1901.

Hi Susan

Genes Reunited is a UK site only and they don't hold any records for any other country.

I'm in Australia and it doesn't matter if I sign in using .co.uk or .com.au I still see the same information.

I'm sure a more computer savy person can explain it better

I live in the UK and am trying to trace South African relatives but I can't search Genes Reunited ZA the search boxes will only look at UK data. How do I access these other sites, for eg the Canadian one too?
