    1. [DOR-LIFE] Online Parish Clerk for Wootton Glanville & Buckland Newton
    2. Jon Baker
    3. Just wanted to introduce myself as the Online Parish Clerk (OPC) for the parishes of Wootton Glanville (or Glanvilles Wootton) and Buckland Newton. My interest in these two parishes (as well as Holwell) is primarily through my DOWNTON family who have been recorded in these parishes for many years. My two parishes are online on my own site, or can be accessed indirectly from the main Dorset OPC site: http://www.dorset-opc.com/ Glanvilles Wootton can be accessed at: http://www.vectis10w.freeserve.co.uk/parish_of_glanvilles_wootton.htm I currently have transcriptions of several censuses online, including 1861, 1871, 1881, 1891 & 1901. I hope to have 1841 & 1851 online before too long, when time and work permits. I currently have transcripts of the BTs for 1731-1812 for Christenings, Marriages & Burials. I have access to more but again not online yet. Buckland Newton can be accessed at: http://www.dorset-opc.com/ The information on Buckland Newton is limited at present, the 1891 census is online and I am currently working on the 1871. Baptisms, Marriages & Burials are also online for the period 1821-1835 only, courtesy of Christine Crawford. I have access to other Buckland Newton data but not yet online. I am constantly on the lookout for more information on the parishes and would be pleased to hear from anyone connected with them. I would be particularly interested to hear from anyone with connections to the DOWNTON or related families. If you have questions about either parish please let me know and I will try to answer, I am also happy to perform lookups for these 2 parishes, let me know and I'll always see if I can help.
