Welsh Parish Records. Updates include place data including Denbighshire, Glamorgan, Brecknockshire and Anglesey, so that names are both more accurate as well as enabling users to search for both Welsh and English place names
UK and Ireland, Incoming Passenger Lists, 1878-1960 — Improving keying accuracy and completeness for passengers travelling on Montserrat and Windrush ships
UK and Ireland, Outward Passenger Lists, 1890-1960 — Adding records for ‘War Brides’ – passengers travelling after WWII to Canada and US after/before marrying servicemen in the UK.
My husband’s grandmother was a war bride, but she travelled in 1944, so she won’t be included? I’ve yet to find her, with Sean’s father who was a toddler, on any passenger records.
