I've been an Ancestry.com user (addict) for close to 15 years. THAT'S what the free trial will do. If you're the least bit interested in genealogy or history 14 days isn't even close to enough! It's just enough time to get you totally hooked or to discover that you're not into it at all.

I think it's well worth the cost (although I haven't paid for the international database.) And I've known people who have cancelled without any drama involved.
