Yes; have you tried your local public library!? Ours has both www!.ancestry!.com and www!.heritagequest!.com!. Or try:

You should start by asking all your living relatives about family history!. Then, armed with that information, you can go to your public library and check to see if it has a genealogy department!. Most do nowadays; also, don't forget to check at community colleges, universities, etc!. Our public library has both www!.ancestry!.com and www!.heritagequest!.com free for anyone to use (no library card required)!.
Another place to check out is any of the Mormon's Family History Centers!. They allow people to search for their family history (and, NO, they don't try to convert you)!.
A third option is one of the following websites:
http://www!.searchforancestors!.com/!.!.!.

http://www!.censusrecords!.net/!?o_xid=2739!.!.!.

http://www!.usgenweb!.com/

http://www!.census!.gov/

http://www!.rootsweb!.com/

http://www!.ukgenweb!.com/

http://www!.archives!.gov/

http://www!.familysearch!.org/

http://www!.accessgenealogy!.com/!.!.!.

http://www!.cyndislist!.com/

http://www!.geni!.com/

Cyndi's has the most links to genealogy websites, whether ship's passenger lists, ancestors from Africa, ancestors from the Philippines, where ever and whatever!.

Of course, you may be successful by googling: "john doe, born 1620, plimouth, massachusetts" as an example!.

Good luck and have fun!

Then there is the DNA test; if you decide you want to REALLY know where your ancestors came from opt for the DNA test!. Besides all the mistakes that officials commonly make, from 10% to 20% of birth certificates list the father wrong; that is, mama was doing the hanky-panky and someone else was the REAL father!. That won't show up on the internet or in books; it WILL show up in DNA!.
I used www!.familytreedna!.com which works with the National Geographics Genotype Program!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Not really!. If you could get a three-course meal delivered to your door for free, would you go to a restaurant and pay for one!? No, you wouldn't!. Restaurants would go out of business!. Ancestry is still in business, selling data instead of giving it away, because they have more than anyone else does!. They have found a need and are filling it, just like every restauant in town, from McDonald's to Chez Louise!.

Some libraries have access to Ancestry that they pay for with your tax money!. That is splitting hairs; it isn't really free, any more than the books are free, but you don't get charged directly for looking, any more than you get charged directly for reading a library book!.

Most Family History Centers have census access!.

There are 400,000 free genealogy sites!. None of them are as big as Ancestry!. They are all helpful to someone!. The resolved questions have links and tips!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

LDS!.org or any of their local churches!.
They have the world's largest records of genealogy!.
And it's all free!Www@QuestionHome@Com
