I wondered if you had a money saving code for a FindMyPast subscription as I did think if I renewed my lapsed subscription I may be able to investigate opening a closed record on the 1939 register.
FindMyPast just sent me email.... as it's Black Friday they offering 50% off any subscription....
...use code BFRIDAY15 but this expires 30th November....
.... however any subscription will NOT give you access to unlocked records on the 1939 Register, you still have to buy credits to do this
