Ancestry.co.uk have just put up a link to their new addition of West Yorkshire non-conformist records. They date from 1646 to 1985 so a very long time period. Discover Quakers, Methodists, Baptists and more in baptism, marriage and burial registers from a variety of nonconformist faiths.

Many family historians find hidden amongst the branches of their family trees a connection to the French Protestants who fled their homelands to find religious freedom in England.
A usual place to start your search for these ancestors and to understand the background and reasons for their flight is The Huguenot Society of Great Britain. The site has a family history section as well as a list of their publications and details of their library. I see that an index to the Proceeding & Quarto Series in now online.

Find My Past have been at it again !! They have been busy this time in the Cheshire Record office and now can offer online the following records.
This should keep my friend Jill busy for the next few weeks as she has plenty of Cheshire ancestors !!
Wonder which counties Find my past & Ancestry are working in now? If anyone knows what is coming up please they would like to post a comment.
