I agree with that, and would add that FMP also have the British
Newspaper Archive. You might like to find what is available at your
local public library. Southampton have Ancestry, I think Hampshire
have FMP (I'm fairly sure they had it a few years ago). However, I
also note that while City of London libraries have FMP, their
subscription does not include the British Newspaper Archive, so it
appears FMP allow some options about datasets.
If you get to the point of autosomal DNA testing, I have a Perl/Tk
chromosome browser you would be welcome to try.
