Been to Mallory Park, in Leicestershire to see the classic car racing. Hubby's idea, but I really enjoyed it!!! Kids did too!! Chilly, but we've been out the fresh air all day, and completely shattered!

I'm battling with various web sites trying to find members of my family from the 1800's, you see I'm new to this and not sure if I'm on the right sites. I've get various births, deaths and marriage certificates finishing at 1874 but want to go further. It appears to me that to find out and view further certificates I would need to visit the records office in London? But as I live in Jersey that is not going to be very easy for me. Can anyone out there give me some advise and web sites that I can research, I've names to continue but no dates etc and I feel like I'm bashing my head against a brick wall (I could always do the ironing!!!!)

I'm not doing a lot. We're going to the Roman park near here for a long walk with the dog. Then stopping off for a cup of tea and a bun. Something nice and relaxing. Jo.
