	Took out a 6 month sub to FMP when 1911 went subs,use it loads.but still have Ancestry as well. Never tried theFTM thing as all my stuff is on paper in a big file. BTW ,I think you will have to get Susan and James Edwards marrige cert for Susans dads name as the only one I can find on census for her that "seems"to be her is a Susannah with father Benjamin. Certs go up from £7 to £9.25p in April at GRO,so I would get it quick time !

Member Since: November 2007 Posts: 30 Send Message	thanks for hint on GRO costs - have a load to get! another Benjamin! (benjamin Pitt was my mothers Gfather) -you helped me on that one too! FTM is very good - It can hold loads - very easy to use and comprehensive in holding notes, many different ways of printing out all the info too - thats why I like it - (keeps the pile neat and tidy - or at least, it will! but I'm keeping it on my computer this time! and trying like mad to reduce the paper in my box! moving back here from france later this year - sitting here on my bum is my way clearing excess paperwork!! what is FMP? - BTW ? carol

	Find My Past =FMP I remember the Pitt one.. My x has a place in France with the witch,hes off there tommorow for 2 wks. Goes about every 6 wks,I think he will retire there in a couple of yrs or so,I will REALLY miss him if he does! But she dont know I know and if she did she,d have a hissy fit,stooopid woman. Me and him are really good friends,always have been,just couldnt live together but its nice to be friends ,especially with a son between us.
