Hi all, I've just received an email newsletter from Ancestry advising they're offering free access "to millions of UK military records this coming weekend from 21-24 July. Over four days, you can search every UK military record going back more than 300 years to uncover fascinating new details about your family history."

Access to the records in the featured collections will be free from 00:01 early Friday 21st July until midnite of Monday 24 July, 2017.

This Ancestry wideo may be useful too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndhOUt6TeZ0&feature=youtu.be&o_xid=80141&o_...

In the usual manner any new users will need to register their name and email address beforehand, but nothing more and no requests for payment, unless you stray away from the free datasets when using Ancestry website. Registering will also mean you'll receive occasional and useful newsletter emails advising of events such as this, or informational research guides, and so on, but no spam.

Hoping this helps, Jeff.
