I am sorry North Petherton is not on-line yet. Rootschat has a thread on the Somerset board to request a look-up and someone might have the disk. Otherwise it might be worth contacting the Somerset familyl History society. I know Bristol family history society do baptism look ups for the old Avon area for £2.00 each.

You could try the following website as they have good coverage of the West Country: www(.)familyhistoryonline(.)net remove brackets You will need to sign up I think and I usually do a £5 subscription which lasts me months as it costs just a few pence to view each record. Hope that's helped. ps - if it's just the one search you needed doing, I don't mind looking a name up for you - if you give me the details I'll check for you. If you have whole families you need to search for then it would be worth your while subscribing with them.

The Somerset board of rootschat has all the parish records that are on-line at present. Do you know which parish she was born in?

I know the right way is to visit a record office but that is not possible at the moment. Is there any other way? Any other records that are available? i have searched all the records I can think of on IGI and she is not on there. The county is Somerset. Ann Glos
