I think you are confusing accuracy with comprehensiveness. nell

If you mean Ancestry civil registration, the info on ancestry is taken from Freebmd, so it will be as up to date as that. nell

Is Ancestry up to date? I have found a relative on 1837 but I can find no trace of him on Ancestry. Has anyone else had this problem?
