FFHS Joining Forces with FindMyPast

I've just noticed this in my latest newsletter from LostCousins. Sounds quite interesting...

FFHS JOINS FORCES WITH FINDMYPAST.COM
A week ago a joint announcement by the Federation of Family History Societies and findmypast.com revealed their plan to make records more readily available by hosting them at findmypast.com, rather than at the federation's Family History Online site.

Resources at http://www.familyhistoryonline.net include the National Burial Register and other extracts from parish registers. All of the information has been compiled by volunteers from the individual family history societies that form the FFHS.

With 500 million UK records already available at findmypast.com the site is fast becoming one of those resources that you just can't do without! The FFHS records will be transferred gradually, and we'll aim to keep members up to date with the progress.

Sob. I think I'll miss familyhistoryonline which after TS and SP must be my favourite genie site ever. I have had so much info from it and at such a reasonable price.

Hope that findmypast do just as good a job and don't put the prices up too much.
