Thank you Mia, I did not realise that images of Lancashire parish records were available to view on line at Family Search. This is a big find for me.
Mia had some useful information to remind us about where to look for records. With regard to Online parish Clerks, though, I was disappointed that she missed commenting on the origin of the program and in illustrating the two most well-defined regions of Cornwall (where it started) and Devon, for which I am one of the OPCs. While many so-called OPC programs and webpages have data, they may not have individual OPCs with the expertise to assist researchers.
Mia Bennett, thank you for your fantastic presentation and accompanying syllabus which have given me numerous "off the beaten path" resources to further my research. Amazing!!!
Excellent webinar! So many valuable sources of information that I can't wait to dive into!
So many new rabbit holes to explore! Can't wait to get started. Seriously, I really appreciate the excellent handout. There are many more sources than I was aware of. Thank you.
Helpful
Excellent ideas for more research. I'll be watching again to make notes!
Very good. Thank you.
