Thank you for your interest in our AncestryClassroom™ Programme (the ‘Programme’). Each day, users of the Ancestry® family of websites utilize our historical records to discover and research their family histories, and the goal of AncestryClassroom™ is to help students discover, preserve and share their own family history. If your school is granted access to this Programme, your students will be able to access classroom versions of Ancestry® and Forces War Records from computers within the IP ranges you specify in your application, by visiting https://www.ancestryclassroom.ca and https://ca.forceswarrecords.com (the ‘Programme Websites’).
