just a stab in the dark but there isn't any obscure sites that i don't know about that couldhelp me with births prior to 1837, i've tried the igi pretty much minimal success and of course ancestry but just wondered if there is any magic site that will help me, and therefore make my quest of having to trawl through parish records slighty easier.
here's hoping you've got your magic wands out
thanks
here's wishing kirsty

Kirsty,

What part of the country? In fact, what country?

If you know the likely area or parish you could always check the Genuki website for details of any online sources
