I think most people 'copy and paste' Margaret. (Strictly speaking we shouldn't do it as it violates the copywrite). To copy and paste, highlight the bit you want to copy by running over it with the left mouse button pressed. Then copy it by either right clicking and select copy; click on Edit at the top of your screen and copy; or press Ctrl C. Then paste by clicking where you want it to go and selecting Paste from the first 2 of the above options; or press Ctrl V. Anne

Copy and paste the ancestry result for the name searched. Technically it is a breach of copyright.

I feel daft asking this question but I would like to know!! When somebody asks for a lookup on a census, how do you print the information onto the reply board? It has the fathers name, mothers name, gender , civil parish etc. etc. Can somebody tell me please?? Thank you
