Four days free access to Ancestry's Irish & UK records

4 days of free access to Ancestry's Irish & UK records

Ancestry UK is offering four full days of free access to its entire collection of UK and Irish records, including the recently-uploaded 1939 Register (which could be useful for those with Irish family who had migrated, temporarily or permanently, to England or Wales before the start of WW2).

You can check out the full menu of included record sets on Ancestry's unfortunately named UK Records page.

The free access weekend is now live and will continue until 23:59 GMT on Monday 9 July.

Although you don't need a subscription to view the records, you do need a registered account. If you don't already have one, it's quick and easy and free to set one up with just your name and email. No financial or other personal details are requested. You'll then be sent a user name and password to gain access to the collection.
