Hi,
Have been a member with ancestry for many years, for abt 5 years I received emails, re offers and more importantly prior notice when they were about to take my subscription.

Then the emails stopped, I received nothing.  I checked junk etc., there were no emails.

Complained many times, with various responses but no actual solution.  The problem appears to be with their automatic emails, because if a person sends an email I receive it.

This morning I have been told, there is nothing they can do their system shows emails have been sent and the problem must be with my service provider. Non of them actually confirm that their automatic system has the correct e-mail address, they skirt round this question. They also suggest I create a new email address but fail to explain how this will resolve the problem.

Can someone explain in very simple terms, what they think the problem is?

Tearing my hair out!!!!

Can anyone help, but please note not good with computer.

Wondered if anyone could tell me how to find/access a copy of The Pharmaceutical Journal issued in 1935?

Their current site only contains issues back to 1999.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello

Wondered if anyone has a copy of:-

The Domesday of Crown Lands: A Study of the Legislation, Surveys, and Sales of Royal Estates under the Commonwealth by S J Madge 1938

Before I purchase a copy of the above book, wondered if anyone has seen it and does it contain
detailed information re Land Sales, in particular re Cowbit, Lincolnshire.

Many thanks

Hi

Sorry to return to the subject of images of Derbyshire Parish Registers which have been available to view at home on Familysearch.

After my last post the images did become available again for some weeks, but were not available so I again asked Family search if this was a glitch or permanent?

This is their reply:-
"The contract negotiations with the custodian of the Derbyshire Parish registers now stipulate that these records be made available only through a local family history center.  Here are the parameters for viewing:
The message:
These images are viewable:

When using the site at a family history center.
 If patrons use a family history center computer, they can see the images. They cannot simply be in the center using a personal laptop or handheld device. They should not sign in to FamilySearch.org. If they sign in, they will not see the images."

So no point clicking on the camera icon re Derbyshire Registers, think this is very sad loss of a free resource.

They should be available on Ancestry next year.
