Denise BIVRI = British Isles Vital Records index - 2nd edition is available on 16 CD-ROMS and can be seen at family history centres, the Family Records Centre, Society of genealogists and other archives & libraries. It contains extracts from parish registers and some other birth and marriage indexes including non-conformist. Boyds Index = Boyds Marriage Index compiled by Percival Boyd, indexed by groom and bride's names - it gives the name of the aprish adn the year of marriage. Some of it is accessible on the English Origins site. Various censuses are available on CD for different places/years. For more info about these and other topics, you can go to the homepage of this website and scroll down till you find the Genealogical Resources section - lots of info there. Alternatively, you can find out about different resources by googling. happy hunting nell |
