NEWS: This press release is from TheGenealogist
123,255 individuals recorded in Worcestershire Parish Records have just been released by TheGenealogist in time for The Family History Show, Midlands on Saturday 16th March 2023.
This welcome addition to TheGenealogist’s growing collection of parish records includes transcripts of early entries stretching back to Tudor times. Family historians with ancestors from this English county now have the chance to go as far back as 1538 – a time when Henry VIII had recently become the Supreme Head of the Church of England (1534), was dissolving the monasteries and had, by then, been married three times!
Released in association with Malvern Family History Society, this is the latest fruit of an ongoing collaboration where high-quality transcripts of Parish Records are being made available on TheGenealogist, as well as FHS-Online.
In this latest release from Worcestershire, records from the following parishes have been included: Abberley, Abbots Morton, Alfrick with Lulsley, Alvechurch, Areley Kings, Astley, Bayton, Belbroughton, Bengeworth, Beoley, Berrow, Besford, Birlingham, Birtsmorton, Bishampton, Bockleton, Bredon, Broadway, Bromsgrove, Chaddesley Corbett, Church Honeybourne, Church Lench, Churchill with Blakedown, Claines, Cleeve Prior, Clifton on Teme, Cofton Hackett, Colwall, Daylesford, Leigh with Bransford, Lindridge, Mathon, Pershore Holy Cross, Pershore St Andrews, Pontardawe, Redmarley D’Abitot, Shipston on Stour, Shipston-on-Stour, Teddington, Warndon, Welland, Whittington, Wick, and Wolverley.
This collaboration is part of an ongoing project where family history societies transcribe records for their areas before they are released on both TheGenealogist and on FHS-Online. The latter website brings together data from various Family History Societies across the UK, while providing a much needed extra source of funds for societies.
If your society is interested in publishing records online, please take a look at www.fhs-online.co.uk.
