GOOD LUCK - if you have any useful sites that you would be willing to share with us, please email them to us - webmaster@rfhs.co.uk
The Rimmer Family History - This is a site where you can find information about the history of the Rimmer family.
Genes Reunited - View original census forms filled in by your ancestors!
ancestry.co.uk - Not free but a good site to visit; if you need to use it, gather a lot of questions and take a 'free' trial. Don't forget to cancel your credit/debit card at the end of your free trial period.
British-Genealogy.com - This website has an excellent forum; particularly if you get stuck and need help which is unavailable locally. Lots of people from overseas willing to help with research.
FreeBMD - A good free site for checking births, marriages and deaths in England and Wales - but only post-1837
Family Search - This free site is hosted by the Mormon Church and is good for pre-1837 births and marriages (there are no burials on Mormon sites); use LDS sites as a good guide - try and view original Parish Records if at all possible
Lancashire BMD - Free site - being updated on an almost daily basis, so well worth book-marking and making regular visits.
Boat Families - Excellent site if you have Lancashire boat families to research; Ormskirk & District FHS are doing more research on this topic and updates are appearing regularly.
Your Lancashire - You can check on this site what records the Lancashire Record Office, Bow Lane, Preston, hold; saves time travelling there if they don't have what you're looking for.
OnLine Parish Clerks - This is a new free site and lists most Parishes in Lancashire; many of them have baptisms, marriages and burials listed
The National Archives - Useful for searching items likely to be held at 'national' level; e.g. WW1 and other Military records, immigrant/migrant lists, ships passenger lists, etc.
Welcome to UKBMD - A good site for United Kingdom bmds. Check regularly to see if your (research) county has been included and how up-to-date your search areas are?
Roots Ireland - Excellent site for researching Irish ancestry - free to look at but not free to order documents
Curious Fox - Not a particularly 'busy' site - but can be useful for 'out-of-town' searching
