To answer your Q specifically - there is no ''best website''....there could be one with only one parish on it, but if it's what you are looking for.................................!! Merry

Do you know where the bride was from? It may be that there's nothing online!! Try Family Search Family History Online Look at GENUKI to see if there are sources given for the parishes you are after. If you don't get lucky, try the various county lookup exchanges to see if anyone there can help. Or the local family history societies for PR's on CD or other formats. I'm afraid back from 1837 you will find tracing your tree can take forever!! (unless you get lucky!) Merry

Hi all Can anyone tell me the best website to search parish records for marriages before 1837? I have tried using Ancestry but not having much luck. Trying to find details on a Richard Fletcher born in around 1789 in Steventon in Berkshire (now Oxon) who married Charlotte who was born in about 1791 Thanks, Laura
