News & Information

In addition to the welcome news about the 1939 Register - Access to Findmypast will be FREE this next weekend (from noon Friday 22nd Jan until noon Monday 25th Jan)  - see details of what is available here 

N.B. the 1939 Register is not included in the Free weekend.  However, if you are visiting Kew with the Society on March 10th you will have free access to all the records available on Findmypast including the 1939 Register.

Findmypast on their Facebook page have said that the 1939 Register will also be available to view in any UK Library with a subscription to their site from 16 Feb.  Although not all libraries have this, it may help anyone who only has a monthly subscription as it won't be included with those, only with annual subscriptions.

It's possible to get a year's global membership for $50 (about £36) by accessing the USA FMP site on www.findmypast.com using the following voucher code 75FSJAN16. If you  already have a subscription it is added on (I've just tried it).

While a great offer and I know if works as have recommended it to others, unfortunately it only works if you already have a Worldwide Sub.  If you have a Britain sub I gather it only creates a subscription that runs parallel to the Britain sub you already have.  If I go to upgrade, it just shows an expiry date for this day next year.  Although there have been half price Britain sub offers recently, they never work now extending Britain subs which seems somewhat unfair.
