Herself has got quite into this genealogy thing and she started with Free BMD, then used Census sites, Genes Reunited. It all depends on how much you are prepared to spend searching. She also did a course at the Society of Genealogists. Their web-site might be helpful.
You might try posting in History/Genealogy.
What sort of ideas were you thinking of ? Subscription to a genealogy site with consequentual access to the BMD records can be a good start. Also the cenus records. If you post your tree you may find others asking about your famiy members or you can contact likely relatives too.
As DocHH suggests the freebmd and similar sites are fine if you don't require a polished 'front end' to type into.
