Try FamilySearch too. The UK one and the Dutch one. I know them, I think.

You have to pay to access the majority of Ancestry records and as far as I know it only really works for the UK. England. Scotland is a struggle. America too possibly.

i think i was using FamilySearch, too...

I hate that you have to pay to access Ancestry.com. Like, you can use it without paying, but to ACTUALLY SEE THE RECORDS PROPERLY...you gotta pay. And it's frustrating. Because...i do not want to have to spend money just to see some old documents while doing internet research on my family tree.

That's fair! I don't actually know much about Ancestry. My genealogy doesn't really interest me lol but my mom is super into researching it. I don't think she uses Ancestry tho -- but idk for sure

I think there was something called Ancestry Library or whatever where you could find it for free. I remember talking about it like a year ago.

I am trying to figure out my paternal grandfather's parents. All I used to know was that he was a hotelier in Zimbabwe and abused my grandmother and she ran away with her kids. Now I know he dropped out of school so he could work because his father had died ca. 1945, his whole career and he was also a cheater and remarried.

If you draw up a family tree you can necessarily have a long related cousin everyone is unsure of... You would need defined relationships.


Haha you think my relationship can be found out? I am unknown, genderless, and eating all the food in the family pantry you can’t stop me

I have already eaten all the food. I have already stopped you.

I thank God for South Africa. Potentially the only country in Africa you can really research online.

People think I’m a cousin or something but at this point I could literally be someone’s old ex who just decided to stay for snacks, nobody knows including me and honestly I’m good with that.

It's easier to come up with new stories than it is to finish the ones you already have. I think every author would feel that way.
