It is not complete yet but you can always use the pay BMD site at http://www.1837online.com/Trace2web/ For those outside the British Isles who try either site, the English and Welsh counties changed in 1974. Some new counties were created while some places were moved from one county to another. There have been some changes since, especially in Wales. A map of the counties before 1974 can be found at http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/Britain.html Rob Doragh Liverpool (Lancashire 1207-1974; Merseyside 1974 - ?)
