Mission Statement

Free UK Genealogy provides free, online access to family history records. We work with a team of dedicated volunteers to create high quality transcriptions of public records from governmental sources, parish churches, and other trusted institutions. We believe that Open Data and Open Source are key to making and keeping public records accessible to all. We work with others with the same concerns.

Description

Our volunteers have made available:

  • 300,000,000 births, marriages and deaths
  • 35,000,000 records from parish registers
  • 30,000,000 individuals from census data, from 1841 to 1891

We make the databases we create freely available for people to search in order to support their family history research. Unlike many sites, which are 'pay-to-view’ after an initial search is carried out, our databases are completely free to search and view.
