Hi, A couple of weeks ago I posted the webpage listing those Yorkshire Parish Register Society volumes that were on-line with free access. I also mentioned how poorly catalogued they were on the website and how the website wasn't the easiest to navigate. So, with nowt better to do in the dead week between Christmas & New Year, I've tried to make sense of this very useful source (although it needs to be repeated that this is a secondary source). If you copy and paste this link, www.archive.org/search.php?query=parish%20register%20yorkshire&sort=-publicd ate&page=1 you should find a webpage with the search results listed by their uploading date, i.e. the most recently uploaded at the top (I've assumed) of the list. You've got the right page if Hampsthwaite is at the top of the list, this being the most recently uploaded of the 81 listed. Below, I've tabulated the parishes, alphabetically, with their position on the webpage numbered. Otley is at the bottom of the list and is therefore number 1 and many parishes have been uploaded more than once. Also listed are the Yorkshire Parish Register Society's volume number, and the registers coverage. The next time a volume is uploaded, it should appear at the top of the webpage listing and will become number 82 on my list. That's the theory. Until I press 'go', I don't know if this table will translate to the mailing list site, nor whether my explanation makes sense to you. If either doesn't work I can copy the table off-list to anyone contacting me direct. As this is the only Yorkshire mailing list I subscribe to, feel free to forward this to any other mailing lists for which it might be appropriate. Happy New Year, Dom O'Malley. entry YPRS position parish vol coverage 20 Aldborough (vol 1) 110 1538 - 1611 32,73 Allerton Mauleverer 31 1557 - 1812 8 Austerfield 39 1559 - 1812 27 Blacktoft 8 1700 - 1812 15,43 Bolton-by-Bolland(pt 1) 19 1558 - 1724 56 Bolton-by-Bolland 22 1725 - 1812 19,57,64 Brantingham 12 1653 - 1812 18,40,65,76 Cherry Burton 15 b1597-1740,m1562-1740,d1561-1740 2 Danby-in-Cleveland 43 1585 - 1812 24 Darrington 49 1567 - 1812 61 Farnham 56 1569 - 1812 Flockton (see Thornhill) 75 Garforth 46 1631 - 1812 33,58,70 Gargrave 28 1558 - 1812 21 Great Ayton 90 1600 - 1812 39,42 Grinton in Swaledale 23 b&d1640-1807,m1640-1802 47 Hackness 25 1567 - 1783 37,80,81 Hampsthwaite (vol 1) 13 m1603-1807,b&d1603-1794 29 Harewood 50 b1614-1812,m1621-1812 14,49,66 Hartshead 17 1612 - 1812 5 Hickleton 109 1626 - 1812 77 Howden (vol 1) 21 1543 - 1659 13,55 " (vol 2) 24 1543 - 1702 3 " 48 1725 - 1812 11,62 Horbury 3 1598 - 1812 36,60 Huggate 36 1539 - 1812 51 Kirk Ella ? b&d1558-1837,m1558-1841 74 Kirklington 35 1658 - 1812 46,69 Ledsham 26 1539 - 1812 67,78 Linton-in-Craven(vol 2+)18 bmd1779-1812(vol 2)+ m1754-1778 17,59 Marske in Cleveland 16 b&m1570-1812,d1569-1812 44 Mirfield (pt 1) 64 1559 - 1700 30,50 Monk Fryston 5 1538 - 1678 12,41 Otley pt 1 33 1562 - 1672 1 " pt 2 44 1672 - 1750/53 23 Patrington 6 1579 - 1731 16,52,68 Pickhill-cum-Roxby 20 b1571-1812,m1567-1812,d1576-1812 63 Rillington 117 1638 - 1812 22 Ripon 80 1574 - 1628 10 Rothwell 34 b&d1690-1763,m1690-1812 9 Settrington 38 1559 - 1812 45 Sheffield 60 b&m1635-1653,d1560-1634 31 Snaithe (pt 1) 57 b1558-1657,m1537-1657 26,34,35,71 Terrington 29 b1600-1812,m&d1599-1812 6 Thirsk 42 1556 - 1721 72 Thornhill 30 b1580-1742,m1580-1745,d1580-1678 7 Thornhill (pt 2) 40 b1743-1812,m1746-1753,d1678-1812 " & Flockton " 1678 - 1812 28 Thornhill (pt 3) 53 b&d1717-1812,m1754-1812 " & Flockton " 1717 - 1812 38 Wath-upon-Dearne 14 b&d1598-1778,m1598-1779 48 Winestead, in Holerness 4 1578 - 1812 4 York, Holy Trinity, Goodramgate 41 1573 - 1812 25 York, St Mary, Bishophill Junior 52 1602 - 1812 54 York, St Michael le Belfrey (pt 1) 1 1565 - 1653 53,79 York, St Michael le Belfrey (pt 2) 11 m1653-1772,b&d1653-1778
