It has been a while since I have taken the time to have a look at what new records are available on Ancestry, and thus searchable on Ancestry Library Edition. Over the last months, quite a number of record datasets have been added, updated or expanded, and it is well worth another look.
Recent additions for Australia include graves, obituaries, funeral and death records ; Victorian passenger lists, Air Force personnel records, Divorce records, Coroners Inquests and more.
Recent additions to the United Kingdom records include prison records, burials at sea, pension ledgers and non-conformist records.
While any of these records may turn up during a general search, you can also click on the tab in Ancestry for New Collections to see what is available. You can narrow down by type of record, location or year range, then click on any specific collection of records to search them specifically.
So have a look at what is new since your last visit to Ancestry that may have records for your family history. You never know what may have just been added that will fill in more detail for your family history.
