When I try and go on to the Family Search website I keep getting an error message see attached photo. Nothing happens when I try and refresh, has anyone else got the same problem?

The 'free' records are a much more restricted set compared to previous years - for example UK census records aren't free this time.

Are you sure the records you are looking for are included in the offer?  If they aren't then you do get taken to a pay/subscribe page.

Probably it was the newspapers I was mainly wanting access to.

I have been waiting for this but it doesn’t seem to be giving me free access without signing up for the free seven day trial.

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Re: Date for photo based on clothing, please - Fife area

It reminds me of a photo I have of family (Scottish mining community) which was taken just before the First World War. Could be a coincidence but my photo is similar to a few photos I have seen as if someone was going round recording mining communities.

Scotland / Re: Rashida Jones WDYTYA

I think Lisa Kudrow has always had the rights to WDYTYA are in the USA. I have been enjoying the US one’s learning more detail about American history. I am guessing these are abridged versions of the episodes.

Scotland / Rashida Jones WDYTYA
« on: Wednesday 02 April 25 21:40 BST (UK)  »
For some reason the American WDYTYA has appeared on my iplayer recommendations, so I have been working my way through them. Disappointingly no Scottish content, however. Just watched Rashida Jones daughter of Quincy Jones and Peggy Lipton. Her grandmother although born in Dublin went to America from Glasgow and was staying at 89 Oxford Street, Glasgow. On the passenger list they showed I noticed the names next to her grandmother and great aunt. So thought I would share:

Sarah Bellesen from Cambuslang
Robert and Jeanie Russell from 1b Hozier Street, Coatbridge
William and Gwendoline Brown from 18 Melville Street, Falkirk
Catherine and Mary Shand from Maryhill, Glasgow
James and Mary Wallace from 22 Seamore Street, Glasgow
