My first stop for general information including what is online for a particular county is the Genuki site.

This is their Hampshire page
http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/HAM/

Family History Onlne also have some Hampshire records, pay to view but the cost is very reasonable, check out what they have covered.

If you have any Isle of Wight connections they have an excellent site and have a look at their BMD Index.

I also 'Google' and it is amazing what little gems of info are out there :)
