Just had this in an email from them:

Here are some exciting new records you can expect to see in the next year:
Millions of British newspapers, dating from 1710
School admission registers from around the UK
Extensive & exclusive prison records
Millions more parish records, including exclusive new collections from county archives
Many new military collections - including WW1 and WW2 records
New electoral rolls, extending into the 20th century

Sounds great!

I hope the school admissions really are UK-wide.

It does sound good. I hope all the records will have images as well as transcriptions.

I wonder if FMP is taking the Oxfordshire PRs? When I spoke to a member of staff there she coyly said that they don't know who is having them.

The wills have gone to Origins and images will be available soon.

I really hope they go to FMP - I've been waiting for them for ages!

No mention of the British Library India Office Records. They were supposed to have been out last Feb, then soon, now no mention. I so want to see them.

PR's from Staffordshire would be great too, but I know that is wishful thinking.
