Thanks Judy and Nivard. I am familiar with film ordering and have looked at the film for the 1800's. I want to see earlier records but I don't want to order the earlier film 510685 if it is a typed transcript giving me exactly what is on the IGI. I would like to see the original and wondered if it is available somewhere. Barbara >> If you can visit an LDS library then you can order Wombridge Parish >> Registers to >> view at the LDS library.

Barbara You'll find that it's a Transcript produced early last century by the Shropshire Parish Register Society. These contain all the pertinent details that were in the original register.
