Hi Carol > >I was reading recently how GFHS has produced a list of MI in FoD. >However, when I looked through the list of diskettes/fiche to be >purchased I was overwhelmed with how many different versions/areas there >were and didn't know if each version had all burial sites covered. None of the items for sale cover *all* burial sites in Gloucestershire. Members of the GFHS and others have transcribed the inscriptions in quite a large number of the burial grounds in Gloucestershire but not by any means all of them. > >I wonder if any of you could advise me what a good buy would be in this >area. The most useful item to start with is the Memorial Inscriptions Index for 2001 - called GIMIG. It lists all people buried in those churchyards where we have transcriptions - Newland is covered but Westbury on Severn and Whitecroft are not. The disk will give information on: Surname, forename, burial place, year of death, age at death, ref no.. GRIFFITHS MARY NEWLAND:ALL_SAINTS 1848 82 0083/00595 If you find a name of interest, you can (almost always) purchase a paper copy of the transcriptions for that burial ground - they are listed on the web site somewhere with the price for each burial ground. Hope this helps.
