Good morning, Dante This is the list compiled by the Archives Unit in the DGO - I was going to post a summary of it during the holidays, anyway:: "Sources of BVI Family Records The following Offices hold BVI records relevant to family research. Although they do not all have adequate space and staff to accommodate public searches, if you make an appointment, the appropriate officer would make a way to assist you..... The General Civil Registry Office is responsible for Civil Registration. It holds records of births, marriages, deaths and wills from 1859 to present. The Anglican and Methodist Churches hold records of baptisms, marriages and deaths.... Anglican Church: Baptisms, 1825-1861; Marriages, 1833-1946; Burials, 1819-1867 Methodist Church: Baptisms, 1815-1895; 1889 (?); Marriages, 1877-1934; Burials, 1845-1896 (to be continued after work :-)) Peter Moll BVI Dante wrote 21/12/07: > Peter, > > If the list of "Sources of BVI Family Records" is not too long, it may > be nice to post it to the list directly.
