I brought a copy of the Freeminers CD only a few months ago (summer 2010) - it is very interesting & excellent value for money. Listed were all of my Benfield stone mason ancestors & many of my Wintle coal freeminers.
As it was only an index I thought it would be nice to have a paper copy of the actual application. Several years ago a cousin of mine obtained from the Glos Record Office, 2 photocopies concerning my grandfather & gt grandfather's application for a very small sum - 10pence each. Now I know we have inflation etc, but when I enquired recently for further paper photocopies, I was told that now the Glos Record Office charges £20 for a A4 sheet!!!!!!
