Starting today until Sunday, August 31, 11:59 p.m. GMT (6:59 p.m. Eastern time), Ancestry is offering free access to more than one billion UK records.
You will also be able to try new features, such as LifeStory, Facts View and Gallery.
To view these records you need to register for free with Ancestry.co.uk with your name and email address. They will send you a username and password to access the records. After the free access period ends, you will only be able to view the records in the featured collections using an Ancestry.co.uk paid membership.
