On-line Records

As explained elsewhere, I do not propose to place all of my database on-line, due to both the time required for the design of such a site, and also the fact that certain resources used are available on-line in another form, such as the many thousands of entries from the IGI.

Instead, I am concentrating on those records which are very useful, but are perhaps not easily accessed by those who are not lucky enough to have a major library or record office near to them. I will also try to make things available such as Census 'Strays', which is not easily searched from other sources.

To this end, you will find entries from the National Index to Wills, Trade Directories and the Owners of Land Return 1873. In addition I continue to make available an ongoing project of mine, to match up entries from the GRO indexes with parish register entries. Preece entries from Ship Passenger lists have now started to be added, together with a large number of Census Strays (now including some 1911 entries). Projects also exist to add executors and beneficiaries to Wills, US census entries matched to UK records prior to, and after, migration, and unmatched records in my own files, and some of these now appear amongst these pages.

Some of the pages linked here will open in a new window, with a close button to return you to this page. A number will have their own 'home' page, with links to each section in turn..
