Ancestry is offering free access to its entire UK records collection from 4 to 10 May as part of the 75th anniversary celebrations of VE Day.

The family history website’s millions of UK records include census and parish records, military records, and the 1939 Register, which records the civilian population of England and Wales on the eve of the Second World War.
