Some libraries and local LDS may belong to some of these databases. Then you can use their 'free' connection, to determine if there is enough to use at their place, or order for at home. Each DB (Ancestry, World, NFS, etc) is growing and adding new records daily. What you need to do is decide what you want to find, then locate who has it (if anyone). Do not belittle the 'special'. For instance, there is a company that offers Swedish records, that is over my budget, but I try to get a two week or month 'pass' one a year. You might want to get the WVR month, but what I have found. You can somtimes pick the date range at paying, and aim it at your vacation. You may find something that destroys your biggest brick wall. Remember to unsubsc-ribe the next day, so no second month, or you may find so much to keep it. Happy Hunting Rich in LA CA
