I'm new to this whole thing and considering a subscription to .co.uk but wondering if it's really worth it and if not, where else I could find the same information. It says you get "Records from England, Wales, the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands as well as a selection of records from Ireland and Scotland." What exactly are these records? When it says you get civil registration records, what exactly are these? Birth certs. etc?
