Is it possible to check church registers for Kingston Deverill, 1880-1896, for births or deaths ? I'm trying to find out if my ggmother Jane Carpenter, born 1867, KD. had had any children before moving to Yorkshire. Also, I can't find a death for her. Are there any burial registers available from 1901 and later for KD. Thanks Janette

They won't be births and deaths but baptisms and burials and they'll be at the County Record Office unless someone has them on fiche or CD. > I'm trying to find out if my ggmother Jane Carpenter, born 1867, KD. had had > any children before moving to Yorkshire. Have you had a look on the 1891 and/or 1901 censuses? Either may give children. > Also, I can't find a death for her. Are there any burial registers available > from 1901 and later for KD. Burial registers have never stopped although the registers may still be with the incumbent if they are still in use. -- Charani (UK)
