July Update

Dear OGIers,

I managed to fit in an update before the end of the month.  Lots to offer for many counties and record types.

The new total of data sets is 442,069 and here are the details.

  • TINSTAAFL Norfolk Baptisms 7 new parishes
  • LancashireBMD Civil Registration - 130 new data sets
  • TINSTAAFL Marriage Project - 42 new parishes
  • Babel Hathitrust Scanned Parish Registers - 627 parishes
  • Cornwall OPC Database - 202 new datasets
  • Findmypast - Greater London Burial Index - 1 new cemetery
  •            - Middlesex Baptisms - 3 new data sets
  •            - National Burial Index - 19 new cemeteries
  •            - Surrey Baptisms - 4 new parishes
  • DurhamRecordsOnline - 8 new data sets
  • Gravestone Photos - 21 new burial sites
  • StaffordshireBMD - 26 new data sets

I am still working on sorting out the messy Ancestry Worcestershire Bishop's Transcript collections and will add them soon.  And new Ancestry collections for York, Church of England has been released requiring hours of analysis but details will arrive on the OGI in good time.  

I have just completed six rounds of chemo and will require rest and time so hopefully the energy will be available to continue releasing updates and gathering data.

Thanks for your support and use of the site.  

With kind regards,

Tim Manners
