I've bought CD's on line from The Lancashire Parish Register Society, plus some from Parish Chest. Their information is largely covered on Family Search, but there is additional information such as parents' names and witnesses for marriage registrations. Some of these extra bits have given invaluable leads. |

It is a shame about the Family History web site ending - and they havent transferred ALL their records to Find My Past. :-( |

I bought parish records on Cd via the Internet. I bought them from the Family History Society and although I can't remember how much they were they didn't cost much. As one branch of my family were all based in and around the same town they have been invaluable to me and I have used them to help several other GR members too |

Try Googling the area(s) you are interested in - some have online parish clerks and even if they don't have transcriptions some will do lookups for you. |

Often the IGI doesn't cover all the years you need for a church. So you have no option other than to buy cd's or booklets of transcriptions, assuming that you can't just go to the county records office. |

Would anybody recommend buying cds from the internet that contain parish records? I've used the bmd records up to 1837 and I was wondering what everybody else does when they get to this stage? Any ideas would be great. Many thanks. |
