Hello Gail, If you go to the LDS History Center in your area, and give them the church names etc. that you have, they will be happy to give you contact addresses and all kinds of other help, and all free of charge. The LDS Centers have the Birth, Marriage and Death records for almost all the UK churches on film, for anyone to look at. They also have all the UK censuses plus many other records. They are open to everyone and free of charge, they are run by volunteers who are interested in genealogy and can be a big help. When I first went to the Center here in Mesa, Arizona I didn't even know the names of my Father's siblings in County Durham, England, the people at the Center helped me along, and I have traced my Father's family back to 1675 now. Couldn't save done it without them, and I am C. of E. Be sure to bring a pad and pencil with you, as they don't supply them. Good luck, Pam in Arizona.
Hi Pam, Quite impressive!!! Thanks for responding. I very much appreciate your information and will follow-up on it this week.
