Hi Listers Am planning a trip to Yorkshire (my beloved birthplace!) and would like to look at some Parish registers whilst I am there - but search as I might I can't seem to find where I will find them. Am looking for the following both pre and post 1837: Sculcoates Skirlaugh Riston Rise Sigglesthorne Hornsea Leven Swine Bridlington Any help gratefully appreciated Lesley E-mail message checked by Spyware Doctor (6.1.0.448) Database version: 6.13660 http://www.pctools.com/uk/spyware-doctor-antivirus/
May I suggest you explore http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/YKS/Misc/Where/index.html Look up each of the places in turn. (For Rise, select R and scroll down to Rise) From their 'parish/place page' (eg, http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/YKS/ERY/Rise/index.html), scroll down to 'Church Records'. From there (eg, http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/YKS/Misc/CBW/ERY/Rise.html) it will clearly state where the originals are kept and how they can be accessed I don't know the area but hopefully you will find that the majority are at the same Yorkshire Record Office ;-) Hope this helps Heather LESLEY AUSTEN wrote: > Hi Listers > > Am planning a trip to Yorkshire (my beloved birthplace!) and would like to > look at some Parish registers whilst I am there - but search as I might I > can't seem to find where I will find them. > > Am looking for the following both pre and post 1837: > > Sculcoates > Skirlaugh > Riston > Rise > Sigglesthorne > Hornsea > Leven > Swine > Bridlington > > Any help gratefully appreciated > > Lesley > >
