Hi Jenny, Many thanks for this. May I ask which "baptism c.d." you used? I'm new to research in this county and haven't sussed out all the resources I should know about. Is this one produced by the Gloucestershire FHS? From their website I thought it was an index only rather than a transcript? Again thank you so much for this.

Thanks Jenny. I have enquired of the fhs to see if their cds will work on my mac, if so the baptism one is a must and looks like the other two could be essential acquisitions also. Does anyone on the list use these cds on a mac computer? Also, why can one pay for them using paypal, but not pay the sub fee to join? Can't quite work that one out!
