While stumbling and a bumbling through my family tree i have gained a whole host of sites which i have found useful. The best being the Online Parish Clerk Project. It currently covers 12 counties the links are as follows...

LANCASHIRE - http://www.lan-opc.org.uk/

CORNWALL - http://west-penwith.org.uk/opc.htm

ESSEX - http://essex-opc.org.uk/

LEICESTERSHIRE - http://www.rootsweb.com/~engleiopc/

WARWICKSHIRE - http://www.hunimex.com/warwick/opc/opc.html

DEVON - http://www.cs.ncl.ac.uk/genuki/DEV/OPCproject.html

HAMPSHIRE - http://www.knightroots.co.uk/

SOMERSET - http://www.wsom-opc.org.uk/

DORSET - http://www.dorset-opc.com/

KENT - http://www.kent-opc.org/

SUSSEX - http://www.sussex-opc.org/

WILTSHIRE - http://homepage.ntlworld.com/david.brown6666/wiltsopc/

While the records are not yet all complete there is a search engine on them, and i have managed to find alot of what i needed with the expense of a trip to a local records office... I say 'local' most of the family i'm tracing are in Lancashire and i'm in Warwickshire!!!

Hope this helps someone

I am currently transcribing baptisms for St. Mark's Church, Bolton, Lancashire, for the Parish Records Project. Anyone who may have had family who were baptised at this Church feel free to contact me and I will try to help them with information.
