Grace, if you are spending credits don't forget you can always ask on the Find Ancestors board for look ups, it will save you a bit of money especially if you are 'wasting' credits if you get the wrong family. Helpers with subs here or elsewhere are always happy to help. |

I spent nearly 6 hours on GR last night and found the whole experience a struggle.. I was trying to follow a family line and eventually got the census records for 1861, 1891, 1901 and 1911 but more often than not was given 'There are no results for' even though I had found them in the census either side of the decade I was searching. Thats why it took 6 hours to get 13 pieces of printed 'Household Info' and a good few credits spent.. Obviously I need a lot more practice. :-D |

Family search does not give access to UK census images unless you are a FH member or visit one of their centres. More often than not the info you need is not on the transcript. |

I don't use GR for research either - always use the free Mormon site - www.familysearch.org |

Is it me ? I haven't been on here for a few years and now I cannot find my way about GR. I want to view the different censuses but cannot, for the life of me find out how to do it.. I am finding GR very complicated. |
