I may have four more years to go in which to complete my PhD, but I can't cross my fingers and hope to look up all the families I want to at the last minute, all the information would need to be analysed and tabulated and interpreted.

Apparently I will get a 10% discount on the prices as a Pro package subscriber, but that only reduces the prices to £2.25 and £3.15, not a huge difference.Įventually the 1921 census will no doubt become part of the subscription price, or available on Ancestry as part of my subscription with that provider, as the 1911 census and the 1939 Register did, but will happen within the next two years? Probably not. I will probably pay for my grandparents, as they'll be of interest to my extended family, but certainly not for all the 450 Barnsley born First World War soldiers I was planning to research for my PhD. household census transcription and another £3.50 for the image of the actual document is prohibitively pricy. I could have visited a library in Sheffield to do the same for Find My Past if I had wanted to badly enough.ġ921 census pricing as announced yesterday My strategy for occasional overseas records on Ancestry has usually been to go to the library to look them up, and email them back to myself from there. Ok, so the Pro will include their Worldwide records too, but I hardly ever want to use those, as my main areas of study are family (mainly Barnsley and the North East) and local (Barnsley) and military history of the First World War.

I did compare the new prices to a subscription with the British Newspaper Archive itself (all part of the same umbrella company) but the Pro package, even at £60 more still beat the price of two separate subscriptions. I expect to pay £159.99 next January, I have no idea if the loyalty discounts will still be applied. With the FMP loyalty discount I paid £93.46 in January 2021.

My old subscription was the British one, all the census, parish and military records, roughly what they now call the Plus package, but with the newspapers included. Newspapers are something I use in my research nearly every day. The extra premium charges are particularly irritating as Find My Past recently moved their old newspapers collection to the Pro subscription as part of their restructuring of their subscription packages, which means I'll be paying more than £60 extra next year to get the access I have now.
This time the prices proposed feel much higher than we paid at similar releases for the 1911 census and 1939 Register.Ĭurrent prices for Find My Past subscriptions As usual when new census or census-like collections are released access to the information will be charged at a premium rate and on top of any subscription we already hold. Some of the historians I follow on Twitter are complaining about the recently revealed starting prices for the Find My Past (FMP) release of the 1921 census from 6 January next year.
