Non-conformist records

Post by SarahND » Sun Mar 15, 2009 4:41 pm

Hi all,
I just found this and can't find a mention of it on TS (may be just my brain this morning) so thought I would mention it. This site:

http://www.bmdregisters.co.uk

has a free general search, which is fine unless you are looking for a very common name. An advanced search uses one credit (50p) and viewing the image uses 5 credits (£2.50). This site is very helpful for us folks whose ancestors left England for religious reasons. Several of my Quakers and Puritans have popped up! :D

The Official Non-Parochial BMDs Service

For records of birth, baptism, marriage, death and burial taken from non parish sources

Non-Conformist Records
Methodists, Wesleyans, Baptists, Independents, Protestant Dissenters, Congregationalist, Presbyterians, Unitarians, Quakers (Society of Friends), Dissenters and Russian Orthodox. Maternity Records plus various other BMD records.

More records coming soon...

Hi Sarah
Looks like a useful site. Anything which helps with all those folk who don't turn up in Parish records has to be a good thing!

best wishes
Lesley
