Don't forget there is The Genealogist, I've found people on there that both FMP
and Ancestry can't find, they also have more than one search engine which allows
several ways of searching someone, sometimes you have to play around with the
info you have. The Genealogist hopes to have the 1911 in the in near future, but
this will be with the Diamond subscription. Don't forget they also have the
non-conformist records too and the pre 1858 wills with images (not complete but
getting there). None of the subscription sites are perfect, but with our help,
they can be.

Subject: [CHS] Re 1911 census





I don't want to start an Ancestry v FMP thread but ...
I am Ancestry subscriber and I have been happy for a few years. However, I am
tempted to move to FMP when subs run out for two reasons, both because they
perform better than Ancestry (for what I have needed so far)
1) they have 1911 census and during the World Cup football in June I made
excellent use of their 'free while England plays' access to 1911 and got many
many ancestors (sorry Peter).
2) when I have been unable to find an elusive ancestor on Ancestry it has been
due to their transcribing because I can see, but cant access, it on FMP. That is

when I call on the help of the kind people out there to help me out with
something I can't see myself on FMP.

FMP is rubbish anyway. I subscribed on Saturday for 6 months just for the 1911
census and it is really a struggle to find people and sometimes I don't.
Ancestry is far superior and hope they include this census soon.
