Sometimes all you can see is an index and you can't really tell whether or not the person named is your ancestor or not. Do a Google search on the name of the record and see if someone has a free copy somewhere else online. You may end up having to pay the fees. Depending on the number of documents you want to view, it may be less expensive to join for a year's subscription than pay for individual documents.

If that IS the business model? <br />It is unlike websites I currently subscribe.

Are there any? I would be looking closely at the sources rather than depending on a user submitted family tree. Thanks for the comment.
