Volunteers may or may not be willing to obtain copies of the relevant pages. If they are, expect to reimburse expenses. Not only will you find the material extremely informative, but it will help you avoid wasting your own time, and that of our volunteers, on fruitless searches. The more you know, and the more specific you can be, the better we can help you. Many of the sources used for these lookups are the result of the dedication and hard work of a family history society.
Many societies produce publications related to their county.
You may want to consider purchasing your own copy of relevent resources to aid your research. You may also wish to consider supporting research in this area by joining the society. Details can be found at their respective web-sites or see Genuki's Family History Society listings . When making a request, please indicate which item you would like to have looked up, eg 1881 Census Index for Devon, as many of the lookup volunteers do lookups for several counties and several items, and often they are not sure exactly which item you have in mind.
