The genealogy networking website Lost Cousins, at www.lostcousins.com, allows people to make connections to distant cousins by sharing connections found through various censuses around the world. For Scotland this is done through the 1881 census, for England and Wales through the 1841 and 1881 censuses, for Canada the 1881 census, and for the USA the 1880 census. Basic membership is free, but to contact cousins who share a relative in the same census entries that you have uploaded, you need to pay a subscription. So here's a birthday announcement from the company as part of its celebrations of 5 years on the scene...
Until 5.55pm on Tuesday 5th May (5th day of the 5th month), Lost Cousins is offering a joint subscription at the knock down price of £5, for both yourself and another family member. The normal annual rate for a single subscription is £12.50 - so this is a real bargain. All you have to do is to enter the code 5THBIRTHDAY on the subscribe page.
Happy hunting!
