Family History Beginners Board / Cant see saved ancestry.com records anymore
« on: Friday 06 April 18 00:02 BST (UK) »
When my Ancestry.com subscription ran out months ago I was still able to see census records etc that I had found and linked to while a member (and had paid to have and KEEP that info). But now (after the latest free period) I cant access them anymore !
Has something changed here ?
I understand I cant see NEW records till I pay again
But I should be able to see records I have already paid for in the past.
That's how it used to work
(somehow it marked those records as already paid for, so you could view them again)

Lancashire / Blackpool electoral registers or similar 1946-present
« on: Thursday 07 January 16 16:21 GMT (UK) »
Hello
Are there any Blackpool electoral registers or similar, or a way to look up people from 1946-present. Trying to find details of a long lost Uncle (Ronal H Cole b.1915 Bromley). Married Irene G Hudson in Blackpool in 1946. Address was xx Montpelier Avenue. Daughter Irene M Cole born 1951. Have a likely married named for her from Ronald d.1980 cert, but don't want to publically state it for a living person (begins with H).
Can anyone help or point me in a suitable direction.
PS Ronald reported worked at British Leyland in Preston -- any workers or union records anywhere ?
Thanks
