If they gave it to us in a more sensible way Paul... as you suggested, by name, it would be cheaper.
SO... they are not going to do that.
It is expensive however you do it, isn't it?

We just keep on paying.
I found Ancestry very dear... it worked out at a lump sum taken from my account 'just when I couldn't afford to pay it'...
Best way to do though if you have the money.

Thanks Diddydoris..will take a look...though I have found most things online that say they are "free"..are fibbing :).

Most of these kind of sites I find ..end up going through ancestry.co.uk anyway.

Er?...yes Claire..i have setup with ancestry..kind of...I recall I still had to pay..even though theres meant to be a a free trial..
Not sure how I ended up having to pay..even though I only joined a couple of days ago.

It's just me..nothing goes as it should..my life in a nut shell.

If you're looking up bmd's this site is free.

Yes...If I have to continually keep searching.
But I don't have the finances to make a larger one off style payment for a time limited, unlimited access.
I have no income other than my incapacity. So money is extremely tight..
I always knew this wasn't going to be cheap...lol.
But I have found out my initial quest information..but like most..I'd like to now find out more about my family.

Oh well....nothings free..always a catch.

If you are using credits on here, it has to be the most expensive way possible to do your research.....

Was just thinking. When searching for BDM's..I find that...even it I have the year...I still have possibly 4 or more Qaurters( by date) to look at. This mean having to use 4 credits or more. BUT...if they were sorted by names thourgh the year rather than by months.
I'd only have to look at the 1 quarter containing the names that match the one I have! Saving 3 or more credits.
I guuess you could say if you know the month..then you would only need to look at that quarter...and so save the same amount of credits....
Though I would say your more likely to know or have a name than to have a possible month.

I think it would be easier to search and be quicker to arrange by name than months.

Just a thought
