With spring in the air now is the time to visit family history fairs and search for those elusive ancestors. The main event coming in June is the Yorkshire Family History fair which is sponsored by TheGenealogist.co.uk and will include a number of free talks to help you with your research.

You can use your hobby to earn hundreds of pounds for your society or yourself or get M&S or S&N vouchers with our new refer-a-friend scheme.

TheGenealogist credit free subscriptions start at just £29.95.

Our article focuses on Diana Dors, the British Blonde Bombshell, and the new marriage transcripts that enabled us to find her marriage record.

Coming Soon: Diamond Subscriptions

There have been many additions to the Gold Personal Premium subscription; one of the major features is the latest version of TreeView which now allows you to record and share your family tree and lets you know of matches found in other trees. Subscribers can then request details of the matches. It also finds matches in our records.

The latest data releases on TheGenealogist.co.uk have seen over 28 million database records added - a few of the latest ones can be seen below.

Thank you to the thousands of users who answered our questionnaire. The feedback has been very useful and will shape our new Diamond Subscription. A number of resources requested by users will cost millions to license and implement but should provide a very attractive research facility. We will have a special offer for Gold users who upgrade to the Diamond subscription.

The records below are all now included as part of the Gold Personal Premium Subscription, which you can purchase here.

"Often referred to as England’s answer to Marilyn Monroe, Diana Dors was a talented actress and at age 20 became the youngest registered owner of a Rolls Royce.  Unfortunately her talents were often over shadowed by her private life, which meant that she never became the icon in America that she was in the UK.  She met her first husband Dennis Hamilton Gittins in 1951 and they married five weeks later at Caxton Hall in Westminster.  Their marriage is registered on the official GRO index in the Jul-Sep quarter, which you can locate using the new marriage transcripts on TheGenealogist.co.uk."
