New on Ancestry

It is always worthwhile checking to see what new records have been added to the database at Ancestry, as well as which record categories have been updated to include new information.  This may mean there is new data waiting for me to find, so I like to check back every few months at least.  Below are some of the recent additions for the United Kingdom and Australia.

Don't forget that you can search the Ancestry database for free at any branch of Campaspe Libraries using our public access PCs or wifi through our subscription to Ancestry Library Edition.
