It's also worth looking out for the trials on Find My Past and Ancestry. There is a thread somewhere on here about a month on FindMyPast for £1, but I can't find it! Just make sure if you take up the offers that you untick the continuous subscription so that you don't get charged full price for the next month.

ADDED: Found it

FindMyPast have Shropshire records.

There'll be another offer in due course. Keep an eye out as rootschat members always post information about offers for each other.

It's worth checking if your local library subscribes to FindMyPast - mine does.

It's not supposed to end until Monday.    The code is remember16 - but just go to the link from the first posting.    http://lostcousins.com/newsletters2/midnov16news.htm#FindMyPast

Then go to your account, and untick 'auto renew'.
