The Common Room / Which website? Ancestry, Find My Past, Society Records?
« on: Friday 20 November 20 09:24 GMT (UK) »
Hello everyone.
I wonder if I might ask some advice about the level of my research and how to do it on various websites that offer search facilities.
I am researching my family in Hampshire off and on for about 10 years. I made it back in a 100% perfect line to the mid 1700's. There is some degree of uncertainty after that about which line follows which and I think from here that I am down to parish records?
I have a free trial with Ancestry, where I want to obtain more information on my my relations and where they were 1800 to modern day and this seems like a good website to subscribe to, although a bit expensive.
I also have a free trial to Find My Past. This has been ok but there seems to be some records missing that I get from other results (I also have Hampshire Genealogy Society Baptisms, Marriages and Burials CDs).
Am I on the right websites for what I need to achieve or are there others which are better for those 1650-1780 records? Or, as I think, this might be a Records Office visit or two!
Many thanks for your help!
Philip
