Bob asked: <<would anyone know if the Birchanger parish records would be on line? >> Hi Bob, The LDS have a film of the parish registers for Birchanger covering years 1688-1943, there may be gaps in those years I can't say. The Film number to order a copy of the film by is 1471884 and the PRs are on items 26-32 on that film. With this Film number you could order a copy of the film at your nearest LDS centre for a small fee, once the film arrives there you will be notified and can go and view the film at that centre over the following month after it's arrival. You can find the address of your nearest LDS centre by going to the home page of the familysearch site where there is a section on searching for such addresses. The LDS library catalogue also shows that they have Parish Chest material for Birchanger for years 1680-1862 on film. Parish chest material can be useful as it contains such items as Vestry minutes and overseers rates and can contain names of parishoners making payments to the church or asking for parish relief etc., The film number for this is 16657247 items 17-19. Again there may be gaps in the year coverage on the film. Regards Jenny DeAngelis Spain.
