This afternoon England play Germany which means you can enjoy 90 minutes of free access to findmypast.co.uk between 9am Sunday and 9am Monday (UK time).

Here’s the fourth World Cup widows competition question we’d like you to answer:

Which ship was Joseph Dugemin a passenger on?

Our passenger lists hold the answer.

The prize: a digital camera, vouchers for a year’s Full subscription plus more family history prizes.

When England get knocked out of the tournament we’ll let you know how to enter the competition. Remember that you need to answer all the competition questions correctly to be in with a chance of winning - there’s one question for each England match. You have until 12 July to send us your answers and there can only be one winner. We’ll pick the winner at random from the entries that contain all of the correct answers - the judge’s decision is final.

We’ll publish the winner on our blog on 13 July along with the answers to all the questions. Good luck!

We’ve picked the winner of our May competition in which we asked you to tell us how many William Shakespeares there are in our Chelsea Pensioners records. At the time we posed the question the correct answer was 3 but interestingly the total crept up to 4 after the release of our latest batch of Chelsea Pensioners records!

That means that any of you who answered with either 3 or 4 were technically correct, so as usual we’ve picked our winner at random from all of these entries. Congratulations go to Susan Wheeler from Loughborough who wins a copy of My Ancestor was in the British Army by Michael J Watts and Christopher T Watts. Happy reading!

Thanks to all of you who entered - look out for June’s competition on our Facebook page this Friday.
