I have used RootsMagic for years; it does what I need it to do.
There is also the free, cut-down, version RootsMagic Essentials.

Fold3 requires a separate subscription.

RootsChat rules don't permit us ti disclose information from paid sites.

The Lighter Side / Re: Myths debunked when doing family histroy.
« on: Yesterday at 08:02 »
My grandfather and his siblings were not with their parents in Wiltshire in 1911.
I eventually found them in Bedminster, Bristol all using their middle names as first names!

In every other census, BMD records etc., they used their "normal" first names.

That's not a Medal (Index) Card.
It's a page from the Regimental Roll.

Which column are you referring to?

Please bear in mind that adoption records are supposed to be private.
See: https://www.gov.uk/adoption-records

You may have to go through an Intermediary Agency.

The law changed in 1926/7, when legal adoptions came in.
Private adoptions were supposed to cease then.

There was a server problem with RootsChat yesterday?
Or rather with CloudFlare, I tried 3 times to reply to a post!
And others had the same problem; hence the number of duplicate posts.
