Hi All, Have just spent the afternoon looking up the branch of my family which went to US. Ancestry are doing a special Thanksgiving officer - get 3 days unlimited searching for free.

Nudging this for anyone that hasn't seen it. I received an email about this offer from Ancestry and am almost finished with my 3 free days. It's been wonderful!! I've been able to add on another generation and found several siblings of an ancester I didn't know existed!! I won't pay the exhorbitant prices Ancestry wants. Free is a great price.

Researching:
Henderson, Bowen, Freeman, Dougherty, Somerset, Harrison, Hill, Butler, Moran, Brown, Roddon

I logged in for this on Wednesday, I think, and I still have access to the records today - is this because I am already a member of the UK version I wonder?

I think it is sometimes a generous 3 days. I did it last time they had a special offer and I am sure I got in for 4 days. I'm doing it this time too but haven't had much free time to do research. However I did find the ancestral aunt who was a saloon keeper and that was fun! Sue
