Search request re Henry Wilde/ fold3
« on: Thursday 02 November 17 22:23 GMT (UK) »
Ancestry has given me a possible "hint" re my ancestor Henry Wilde, b Curbar, Derbyshire, around 1696; it's something to do with being a Chelsea pensioner, regiment 22d Regt. Affarrell's; pension admission or examination date 9 Oct 1749.

The problem is that the link takes me to a website called "Fold3", which I don't recall having ever heard of before. I tried clicking on the "free trial" but that takes me to my FB log in then tells me that I'm already registered; I have no idea of my password for this site (if indeed I have ever registered) and I can't get past that point! It doesn't seem to offer a "forgotten password" link.

So can anyone either suggest how I can view this link (without having to pay!) or access it to tell me what it says?

many thanks in advance  :)

It is an add on from ancestry, some records can be found on f m p.  I wonder if they will give free access to fold 3 around Remembrance Day  :-\

The image is available free of charge on TNA. 

Hopefully this link will work - you want image 177.  http://www.rootschat.com/links/01kzr/

If the link doesn't work for some reason just search Discovery for WO 116/4, then select the free image viewer.

Slightly different for me.


Fold3.com ( as at today ) . . . . .

* Offers facebook-connected login/registration.
* US concentric in offering and pricing
* looks like an early version of their (possible?) future offering
