Dear OGIers,
I hope you are having a wonderful month. The weather here in Staffordshire has been lovely. Maybe we will have all our expected showers in May....
Today's update included 559 new data sets covering a range of counties. This brings the current total of data sets on the OGI to 437,011.
Findmypast released a number of Salford Diocese Roman Catholic records this week. Unfortunately they didn't give a list of content so I have just spent the past 6+ hours figuring out what the new items are and the associated date ranges. I really hope Findmypast will up their game and match their indices with their new releases.
Salford Cathedral Church, St John the Baptist
