I used sotts origins quite a lot when i first started tracing my family tree and it worked fine. I have tryed using it several times this week with no joy, is anyone else having these problems or is it my computer?

Hi Lesley, I just checked and it seems to be working fine here. Having said that I only use the free services eg. checking IGI, so maybe its different for paying members. Christine

Hi Lesley if you go straight to LDS site and search from there. Scots origins IGI search is really only an easier way of searching that site. http://www.familysearch.org/ and click on search. Hope that helps you Christine
