Member Since: January 2003 Posts: 0 Send Message	A2A - Access to Archives, is a site that I have just stumbled upon and found to be very good information regarding old archives/documents from wills to lawyer letters, to even a letter stating where to bury a man after he died in goal 1820, not a ancestor of mine I hope, although he did have the same family name. All I did was type in the family name I was searching and hey presto, hits like you would not believe. Unfortunately, it only gives you an outline of what is stated in the document, but gives you reference numbers so you can e-mail and have the original sent out. I have not had chance to look at the site properly, so I do not know if there is any cost involved for documents to be sent, if anyone should find out please post on this board. Happy searching!! Web site address is www(.)a2a(.)pro(.)gov(.)uk
