Happy Easter everyone. You'll be pleased to hear Ancestry in the UK has free access to Irish and Commonwealth records this Easter weekend. It finishes midnight Monday night GMT.
By my calculation the free access finishes at:
10 am Tuesday morning on the Australian east coast;
9 pm Sunday evening in New York City;
5 pm Sunday afternoon on the Canadian west coast;
Above : Ancestry.co.uk's home page over Easter. Click on the Free Access link.
Registration is required to access the records. If the system recommends you go to your local or another Ancestry site, just ignore it and click on the "go to Ancestry.co.uk " link.
So hop over to https://www.ancestry.co.uk/cs/free-access and enjoy free access to these important records. Do let me know in the Comments section below if you have any success in finding some elusive records during the free access period.
Hoping you have lots of time over the Easter break to indulge in ancestor hunting.

As Smith made more components, his knowledge grew. He says he remade the watch link four or five times over the five-year period, as the components he'd made first no longer seemed link as refined as those he'd crafted later. Each part link of the movement was drawn on a piece of sheet steel, hand-cut, filed, and polished. the three-part case began as a single bar of gold, hammered, soldered, and formed into the 18-karat gold case that measures 66.5mm diameter by 21.5mm thick.
Ressence has now taken it from paper to reality and manufactured this one-off watch, and it will cross link the block this link Sunday as part of Sotheby's "Important Watches" auction. It carries an estimate of HK $150,000-$300,000 (U.S. $20,00-$40,000), and the proceeds will go to KU Leuven University’s COVID-19 Research Program. To accentuate the charitable cause, there's a message of hope from Ramsden link engraved in the caseback: "the children of the world are the future."
Robin Swithinbank is an independent journalist, who has written for HODINKEE about his life link in Swatches, among other link things. He is a regular contributor to The New York Times International, Financial link Times, GQ, and Robb Report. He is also Harrods' Contributing Watch Editor.Photos by Andrea Salerno Jácome
A photograph or moving image of a watch can only give you so much. They are highly stylized and produced depictions of watches. In most cases, you lose a lot of the nuance. It's impossible to get a sense of weight, proportion, or overall feel. The wrist model in a photo link isn't you, and regardless link of whether or not their wrist size link is labeled for context, it's still hard to get a sense of how you would look in it, or how heavy it would be on your wrist.
