Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Ancestry DNA delays
« on: Tuesday 05 March 19 00:20 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,
Does anyone know how far behind Ancestry are with providing DNA results at the moment. My mother's results were estimated due on 17 February, but no results yet. Ancestry (via Facebook messaging) won't tell me how far they are behind. I know they are delayed as this is part of the message on the Order in Progress page: "Due to high demand, our lab is a little behind schedule."
Thank you.

Hi rosie99,

Thank you for the suggestion.  I could try that if we manage to get cheaper access to BMD certificates!
If anyone is thinking of visiting the Wakefield Archives, I'd appreciate any details about the baptism if you are able to look.  Thank you.

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Sharlston/Warmfield St Luke's Baptism - FREEMAN
« on: Wednesday 22 March 17 08:37 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,
I'm looking for the baptism of Annie FREEMAN who was buried on 7 Nov 1918 at St Luke's, aged 22 months, so born around Jan 1917.  I have been unable to find her birth registration, so can't work out who her parents are. The address on her burial record is 6 Long Row New Sharlston, where other members of the FREEMANs in my family lived.
If anyone has access to the baptism records, I would be very grateful if you could look to see if she was baptised at St Luke's, the date and who her parents were.
Thank you very much in advance.

The Common Room / Re: Free Military Records This Week.

Hi maddys52,

Thank you for the hint.  I am logged into ancestry.co.uk and I am still hitting the paywall.  I had a chat with Support on Facebook and this is the answer I got:
" The free access has gone live as of this morning (UK time) however as it is a UK specific access period, only our members who are physically based in the UK can actually avail of it. Please keep an eye out on your emails to get updates regarding any offers we will be running in Oceania."

It seems they are being inconsistent about who they think is in "Oceania". Ancestry should make it clear who can and can't access the free records.

Unfortunately, I have discovered that you have to physically be in the UK in order to access these free records.  I am in NZ and have been told this by Support on Facebook.

Hi gogogadgetlegs,

Thank you for looking for this information and sending it on to me.  I will see how that fits in with other information about the Dimalines.

Thanks again,
Victoria
