The discussion about this week’s Who Do You Think You Are? showed that some posters have traced their families back some distance. Have you, and did you find any skeletons in cupboards or other interesting things? I’ve traced one line back to 1588, can’t get further there as the parish registers are missing. Have enjoyed finding that some weren’t averse to a bit of sex before marriage from the late 1500s through to early C20. Sadly nothing more interesting than that!

Ooh Yammy, did you know that before you married him?!

Germanshepherdsmum I was hoping to look for numerous siblings in the 1921 census because it's not just your direct ancestors you need, following their siblings builds up a picture of the whole family and how they all fit together. I will have to wait for them, can only afford direct ancestors at that price!
But I'm sure within a year or two the 1921 will become part of the regular subscription and we can search all we like.
I can understand the high cost when you realise the amount of work shown in this fascinating video:
1921 Census and how it was done
