Hi, Has anyone managed to get stuff from a local library at all? I can get loads from the Ancestry.com website (I am a registered paid user) but for things like birth certificate and marriage certificates Ancestry doesn't have much apart from a name and date and the town etc. What kind of info do libraries generally have on microfiche? I'd like say, a marriage certificate or birth certificate so I can see who the parents actually were etc. Otherwise I am guessing when I search the consus. Thanks!
