The Society's Card Index (Names)
In the early days of the Society,
members undertook the mammoth task
of transcribing local wills, mainly from 17C and 18C, but
some earlier, from which they created a card index of names
and places. To this was added data from the then unpublished church registers (1812-1837). That
exercise resulted in an index of nearly 9000 entries of personal
and place names. The names index can
be searched here. For the places index, please follow

Where
a copy of the original transcript is available, it will be
shown in upper case in the document column, eg LAST WILL . Click the
