Gosh, these are so helpful. THANK YOU

http://genealogy.about(.)com/library/weekly/aa070700c.htm Information on finding records in France and many other countries.

www(.)rootsweb(.)com/~engwgw/ gives access to all counties to help researchers find local resources and reference information. The Cambridgeshire link has a good article on Agricultural Labourers as quite a few of us seem to have them in our family tree. Cambridgshire bmd can also be accessed through UKBMD

Brilliant idea -all under one roof. Thanks Lorraine

there is some good tips on here many site i have not heard of but why could i not print them???

Just went through the first page and UK sites are dominant. Here is one that searches the databases of 36 countries including Scotland Ireland, England and Wales. Some countries have more information or databases than others. Just click on the flag of the country you want. TIP: Look at one database at a time otherwise you will get them all. To do this untick all the others. http://www(.)rat(.)de/kuijsten/navigator GR has 28 million names - how about looking where there were 83 MILLION NAMES in November 2004. http://www(.)onegreatfamily(.)com/

London Ancestors Look at http://booth.lse.ac.uk/ If you search the poverty maps you can find what sort of street your ancestors lived in during the late Victorian period. It is absolutely fascinating. I have spent hours reading the discriptions and looking at the maps. It puts flesh on the skeleton of the Metropolis.
