Latter Day Saints have filmed a lot of records from that area - but be aware that a lot of them look as though they have been out in the rain and eaten by rats!! Peter

Unfortunately there isn't much info for that era available online, you really need to visit the records office and check parish records. Sam x

Can anyone make any suggestions please? Im stuck with my Endley relatives :o( The furthest back I've been able to go so far is to my great x 6 grandfather George Endley, of Lee Brockhurst. I've managed to go back a further generation on his wifes side to include her parents and siblings, which takes me back to 1750's. But Im trying to concentrate on my Endley line and not get too side tracked with other branches yet, although I've just started going back along a different grandparents line because Im so stuck with this one. Apart from going down to Shropshire and trawling through parish registers is there any way of me getting the info? Any hints or tips would be gratefully received. Rebecca
