Thanks,
To keep things simple, all I'm interested in, is whether the
entry can be found in the index. This is to keep things very
simple.
At this stage I'm less interested in the accuracy, just
whether it is there or not.
Having found my ancestors on microfiche, I'm not going to
waste good money on the PRO site. I guess most people take
the same view.
