Any Listers have experience here? Cathy ----- Original Message ----- From: Don Knibbs Subject: Re: RootsWeb CD's question Hi Cathy, I'm afraid I don't know if these are any good or not - I've never tried them myself. I'm wondering if it's worth messaging the KNIBB list to see if anyone there has any experience of the RootsWeb CD's. I know Alan has several CD's of data but I don't know where he gets them from. Don ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] Don, This offer from Roots/Web -- English Parish Records: England (General) The 1,142,711 records in this database come from parish records and similar sources in England around 1538 to 1837. Some non-parish records may be included from as early as the twelfth century. Parish records--primarily births, baptisms, marriages, and burials--provide the best source of vital record information in the centuries before civil registration. This collection includes parish records and similar sources in the United Kingdom approximately 1538 to 1837. The records include baptisms, burials, marriages, tombstone inscriptions, obituaries, wills, and other miscellaneous types of records. Is this what I should be looking to purchase? I think I would need four of them: 1) English Parish Records: Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, Berkshire, Oxford, Worcestershire Retail $39.95 Sale Price $29.95; 2) English Parish Records: Hampshire, Kent, Surrey, Sussex Retail $39.95 Sale Price $29.95; 3) English Parish Records: Huntingdonshire, Northamptonshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire Retail $39.95 Sale Price $29.95; and 4) English Parish Records: Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, Rutland Retail $39.95 Sale Price $29.95. At $29.95 each I want to be sure that I'm getting something useful and I know you have a better handle on what is useful and what is not. Thanks, Cathy
