99% of questions that aren't for lookup help have been asked before. If you enter a keyword(s) in the search box you will get a list of all the threads relating to those words.

For instance the question of 'full age' on a marriage cert has been asked several times. Those seeking information about Irish research have dozens of threads providing information. If you have a question that isn't a lookup request try a thread search, you will most likely find something new to add to your knowledge. Glen

Very good advice, Glen. I often see the same questions asked. For instance the date the census was taken. Some of these questions have been asked and answered many times over. Margaret
