    Hi,
    I am looking to some help on how to start tracing my family tree. I have had a quick look online and they all look great initially BUT once you are registered etc then they are all looking for payment for the services. This is all fine if I know that I am going to find the details I am looking for but how do you see a bit of progress with paying first? Any suggestions would be really great.

    Thanks
    Dotdom14

    There is some information in the Genealogy forum here at boards. Just hover over the Soc section above and then click History & Heritage. The Genealogy forum is in there.

    You could also check us out in the Adoption Forum- we have a few DIY guides (aimed at adopted people- but which could be used to get ideas on how to do your own family tree).

    For certain family names, you might find http://www.thestewartsinireland.ie/ useful. The owner of that site also can help with, or do research for you.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
