My library is part of a Northern Ill network that includes 2 local libraries (within 20 miles) with good genealogy resources including several of those pricey web sites. You can try the sites there for free and see what might be worth buying. Check with your own library to see what you may be able to use and try out. I subscribe to Ancestry.com, but you may like another better.

The subscription are rather pricey. Whether you choose a subscription site or a pay-per-view rather depends on how much looking-up you are going to want to do. Personally, I have a subscription to Ancestry and I am on there nearly every day. I occasionally purchase units for one or other of the ppv sites when I want to look up specific information that isn't available on Ancestry. It will probably also depend on where (which country) you will be doing your research. The vast majority of my family remained in the UK so I only have much experience of UK sites. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines can be found at: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp To find past messages, please go to our searchable archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ For online technical support, please visit http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe please visit: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp Legacy User Group guidelines can be found at: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp To find past messages, please go to our searchable archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ For online technical support, please visit http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe please visit: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
