Last update of 2021

Dear OGI-ers,

I hadn't planned on doing another update this month but Ancestry and Findmypast released new information for Devon.  Didn't want to leave it 'til next year!

Dartmouth in July 2021.  Can't wait to return to this type of weather!

I reuploaded the Findmypast data sets to include the new extended date ranges on many parishes.

The increase from the last update is a net gain of 3,241 data sets bringing the new total to 435,316.

A lot more content from the TINSTAAFL Marriage project as well.

Here is the breakdown:

• Ancestry Devon Parish Registers - 3,355 new data sets
• Cornwall OPC Database - 61 new data sets
• Findmypast Coventry Workhouse Death Records - 1 new collection
• Findmypast Devon Parish Registers - 2,374 new and updated data sets
• Gravestonephotos.com - 4 new cemeteries
• TINSTAAFL Marriages - 15 new parishes
• TINSTAAFL Norfolk Baptisms - 2 new parishes

That is about it for 2021!   I will be taking a well-deserved break from work and demanding hobbies (like the OGI) to spend some quality time with family.  I now have three of my five children living away from home so every Christmas our numbers go down it seems.  My oldest is coming back from the army for a week which we will enjoy.

I wish you all a wonderful Christmas and hope you, despite the recommended restrictions, are able to make some lasting memories and have a rejuvenating and uplifting season.

With warm regards to you all,

Tim Manners
