Ancestry.co.uk now has the pre 1812 London parish registers indexed as well as the digital images online. This is great news for those with London ancestors, and let’s face it who hasn’t!

You will need to have a subscription to access these indexes and images, but it has got to be cheaper for most of us than a trip to London. Of course your local library might have a library subscription to Ancestry so you could ask about that.
