HAPPY RESEARCHING at QFHS Inc.
QFHS has passed another milestone with the introduction of another subscription website
to our computers.
Ancestry.com (Library Edition) is the latest addition and this gives our researchers
access to millions of records in its databases. Ancestry.com may be accessed from any
computer in the Library connected to the Internet. Members can also use their WiFi
enabled laptop computers within the library.
Our researchers already have access to the databases of
WorldVitalRecords.com and FindMyPast.com.au.
