Finding my ancestors

[eros 10]

Hi,

please can someone advise me as to the best sites where it would be possable to trace as much as possable of my past familys who lived in sheffield.I have looked at the pay type sites, but there are so many, i dont know which one is the best for me, as a pensoner i dont want to wast my money on the wrong site. it is difficult for me to get into offices as i live in Holland and although i was born in Sheffield before the last war, i am not aware that any of my known family is still living.

By the way I had relatives living on Watery Lane in the 1930s to 1950s and before that on Wentworth and Martin street.
