    3. I really like Lancashire's Online Parish Record site and how it's set up. http://www.lan-opc.org.uk/ Do other areas have similar sites? I have looked, but was disappointed in what I found, especially for Cheshire, but then maybe I didn't have the right place. Right now I need Durham, Cheshire and Derbyshire. Thank you, you guys always come through! Teri Cleaveland

For Co. Durham, there is https://www.durhamrecordsonline.com This is a pay site but so far as I remember, the transcripts are quite full. For Cheshire, the http://www.csc.liv.ac.uk/~cprdb/ is a free site with full "transcripts" (reordered text but otherwise full). Unfortunately, ever so often (like *now*) it goes belly up and we're dependent on someone being in the college to fix it. It contains about a dozen, no more, parishes. Otherwise, FamilySearch https://www.familysearch.org/ has indexes for (nearly all) Cheshire - these are only indexes and they omit a lot of other text, like occupations and places of residence. But the price is right - free.... (There are a handful of omitted parishes - some because the registers overlap beyond the nominal privacy point of somewhere about 190-something-ish-maybe. Also Astbury sell their own parish registers so aren't going to allow FS or FMP to take them - but Astbury's BTs are in FS). And Cheshire PRs and BTs are on the pay-site FindMyPast - they use indexes originally from FamilySearch. Derbyshire, I'm afraid is beyond my ken. Adrian

    3. Thank you Adrian. I am doing the world subscription for Ancestry and really can't afford any other sites right now. I've been using Family search, but can't get the images to see those other items that aren't listed on the transcripts. I appreciate your help.

There's very little for Westmorland which is one of my counties of interest and there seem to be just a few for Cheshire. There are a few more for some parishes in Derbyshire. Perhaps the best place is to check in the Family Search Wiki. https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Main_Page You can use the clickable map here https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/England_Genealogy to find out which records are available online.

    3. Teri Sorry was out all day yesterday otherwise you'd have had this earlier The parish records for Derbyshire are on Ancestry - https://search.ancestry.co.uk/search/db.aspx?dbid=61409 will take you to the marriages 1754-1932 from that page there are links to the other records The parish records for Cheshire are on findmypast and have been for several years. If you in the UK then your local library may well have access Whilst Genuki has it uses I find that in terms of finding what is where on the web I prefer UKBMD https://www.ukbmd.org.uk/ and its sister sites UKGDL and UKMFH You can use the page on parish registers or the drop-down list for a specific county.
