Another good way of researching your Heps' is to join a Genealogical Email List - this is just a group of other genealogists on a huge email list. You simply subscribe to it - for free - then email the list with what you want to know and (normally!) someone will email you back! You can unsubscibe whenever you wish. It really is as simple as that! The following two lists come HIGHLY recommended; they are for those looking for Hep' ancestors in Yorkshire or Derbyshire respectively:
YORKSGEN
DERBYSGEN
