Have a number of distant (in time) relatives who lived in Cumberland (some cropped up earlier today), and have found records, both extracted and submitted, for a fair few on Family Search.

Enter the name you are interested in (leave dates etc blank), open the IGI files and then refine the search to show records from Cumberland only. You can always refine the search further by entering a year span and/or types of records you are hoping to find.

Best of luck
