Ancestry, Findmypast, MyHeritage and TheGenealogist are four of the biggest English and Welsh family history websites (with a good number of Scottish records as well). They all offer the General Register Office birth, marriage and death indexes back to 1837 and census records from 1841 to 1911 - the essential datasets that form the backbone of family history. They also all offer the 1939 Register, although only Ancestry and Findmypast also include images with their index. Welsh and Norfolk parish register collections are also held across all four websites, Surrey parish registers are now available on both Ancestry and Findmypast and the nonconformist collections from The National Archives are available via Ancestry, Findmypast and TheGenealogist.
