I Signed up to be a full member on here and I'm a wee bit disappointed... can we not access the census' for N.Ireland on here? I thought we could but it appears to be only England. Any advice on how I can use my membership to the full? Thank you :)

Don't buy credits for this site, they are a total waste of money. With the normal membership fee, you can't actually access anything on here other than the message boards and the tree maker. I'm not sure that Irish censuses are available anywhere online, maybe someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Sam x

LOL, your membership doesnt give you much - GR's adverts are very misleading - all of the information you get will be from other members on here. If you have no English ancestors or Scottish then its not worth you getting an ancestry sub like most of us buy £80 a year. Put Ireland or Irish in the search box at the top and it will bring up threads re Irish research. And do a google search for genealogy groups in the areas you are interested in.
