Of course, getting my eyes back into focus I should have written: substituting Shropshire for Wales! Oh confusing, is it not? Anyway regarding the three separate Diocese' for Shropshire, if anyone is confused by this (aren't we all?) and wishes to know the Diocese for a particular parish, email me off list and I'll give it to you. Knowing the Diocese is very useful when searching for marriage licences, bonds etc., as apart from probate records. Cheers graham
