It's a great feeling when you get somewhere and now they have all the way back to 1841. Have fun Germaine x

This is why I always recommend peeps to join ancestry. Its a ridiculous false economy - its a pound a week for gawds sake with all that amazing info. Glad you found yours, keep working backwards!
