Newspapers free on Findmypast this week
 
I've just received this email from Findmypast:
We’ve made our newspaper archives free from 30 May-6 June to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee. Behind every news story, there’s a family story, including the Queen’s and your own. Read all about them for free.

You will need to have an account on Findmypast or make one, and log into it.

Edit - this includes Irish newspapers.

This week's "Findmypast Fridays" says We are deeply saddened this week by the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, and extend our deepest sympathies to the royal household at this time. We are commemorating her reign by allowing the public to explore her life and reign through our newspaper archives, entirely free of cost, from Friday 16 September at 10am to Tuesday 20 September at 10am. Discover her marvellous life in pictures through our blog, or take the opportunity to dive into the archives yourself, and see what wonderful stories you can find.

I am assuming they mean all the newspapers are free, not just mentions of the Queen, but I'm not certain.

Yes. You can search for anything, not just the Queen. I have just searched and found articles that I downloaded a while ago. I no longer have a sub for FMP.
