    3. Hi Karen. I don't know if this information is any use to you the registers maybe too late, but according to the Sheffield Family History Guide no 6 published by Sheffield Archives they have the following registers. Carver St. including Ebenezer and Brighthouses(W.M.) Bapt 1832-1837 on MF A136 Marr 1870-1994, Burials 1830-1837 1806-1855 N.B. later original registers are kept at the Chapel. There is no date when this guide was published. My family were methodists after 1850 and its not easy finding information. You may find baptisms in the records of another chapel. In the Methodist chuch, individual chapels are organised in groups in a cicuit.In earlier times, ministers were appointed to a circuit. There is one main church in each circuit. Rural circuits may cover a very wide area and may straddle administrative county boundaries. this is why some nonconformist registers may have been deposited in out-of-county repositories. I have found baptisms for people from Barnsley and Lancashire in the Chesterfield WM circuit. Hope this helps Angela (LEE) Eckington U.K.
