The Toronto Family History Soc. publish a weekly bulletin of most interesting and helpful hints and small articles. This one I though might be of interest to you all. ( Especially newbies who live far away from the UK and who may be not too familiar with the areas) Were You Aware . Parish Maps for England Alan Billing writes: "Bulletin readers may be interested in the useful maps of English parishes at http://maps.familysearch.org/ , based upon parishes of 1851 (and so including some "new" Victorian parishes split off from an ancient parish). The viewer is first shown a county map of England. There is a search window in which to enter a name (e.g. Southgate); it then lets you choose from a list of possible choices (unless it is unique). In this case, there are three entries, and the one I want is Southgate, Middlesex. It then displays a plan view of the parish of Southgate, and additional parishes, overlaying a Google map or satellite image if desired. A panel lets you look at "Info" (basic parish information such as date range of parish records), "Jurisdictions" (the relevant jurisdictions within which it falls including county, civil registration district, probate court, diocese, poor law union) and "Options" (see below). Using the map overlay, it is quite easy to determine if an existing road is within Southgate, or an adjacent parish (all named); and where an address is relative to the adjacent parish churches (if you have their addresses). "Options" can give you a list of selectable adjacent parishes, and also will list the name and distance to all adjacent parishes within a specified radius. The latter is very handy when seeking a possible out-of-parish marriage since most such are within about 10 miles of the home parish. It is possible to print at least some of the information and maps, though I've not explored that much yet." Margaret Taylor ( Port Perry.Ont)
