I think nearly £7.00 per household on top of the price paid for the subscription is too much. |

From a commercial point of view an utter waste of time. |

Why are we waitng? Why are we waiting? You know the tune!. Slow hand clap everyone & maybe the unveiling will happen. Maybe the beta version was not proved to be user friendly after all. In the meantime Ancestry are desperately trying to sign us up while we still have some money left. |

Has anybody any news on the release date from FMP. Do you think we will be able to go into somebody's reord by putting in their exact date of birth or will it be by address? I wish they would hurry up and put us out of our misery! |

Ancestry ER's cover a lot of the population though - Greater London, Surrey, Midlands, West Yorkshire. |

Unfortunately the ER's on Ancestry only cover a small area of the county |

If you are mean and have a rough idea where yr rellies were living then the electoral registers on Ancestry will often do the job. |

I think it is only fairly recently that people have had to produce documentary evidence of their birth, marriage etc. so I doubt it very much. Lots of people didn't even have a copy of their birth certificate even if their birth was registered. I didn't have mine until fairly recently. |

Looks as though you had to give your date of birth but doesn't say anything about documents |

Thanks everybody. Don't suppose anybody knows if each individual had to produce their birth certificates to register for ration books? If someone was using the name of a live in partner would they have had to prove that they were legally of that surname? |

So - a happy ending - finding two half sisters. What a pity that they were all kept apart by not knowing of their existence! |
