Hi Jim There are certainly parish registers for Worcester St Swithins - look at the Worcestershire County Record Office website for further details: www.worcestershire.gov.uk/records But the main reason of my email is to let you know that there is a One-Name Study for the surname CORNISH, see: www.one-name.org Regards Polly Rubery List admin: MIDMARCH-L@rootsweb.com A genealogy and local history list covering the Counties of Brecon, Hereford, Monmouth, Shropshire, Stafford and Worcester.

Is there an index of citizens living at St Swithins in 1800? Would there be parish records available for that church? I know absolutely nothing about Worcester, so please don't come down too heavy on me Happy to hear from you, Jim Windsor mainrd@clear.net.nz ==== ENG-WORCESTER Mailing List ==== Transcribers wanted for Worcestershire FreeREG for more information see http://freereg.rootsweb.com UK Census on-line http://freecen.rootsweb.com/ http://www.worcestershiresurnames.co.uk/
