Ancestry freebie

Post by joette » Mon Oct 29, 2007 6:52 pm

Ancestry are offering a three day free trial & it doesn't matter if you are a limited member,used it before.

I am busy searching-don't know when it started/finishes.

I have managed to find my maternal GGGreat-Granny at home with her Mother & siblings at last! Only problem is her name is changed Robina McKinley not McDowall like her Mother.Her siblings are Elizabeth Mcharg,James McHarg & possibilly William living next door??.

No sign of a Mcdowall,McHarg or McKinlay Father

Just need to find her birth-do you think SP will ever offer a free day?? :lol: :lol:

Hi Joette:

I've gone to http://www.ancestry.co.uk I can find the records but can't view in full or contact record owner.

Have I gone to the wrong page?

Thanks,
Frances

I had the same thing happen :?

Took me to subscription page. There was a message saying 'Hope you enjoyed your 3 days free membership' or words to that effect. I think this referred to freebie from a few months ago?

Not to worry. But if there is another link somewhere, it would be much appreciated :)
