Findmypast Weekly Update: Suffolk and Staffordshire

It isn’t every week I find ancestors in all the collections with additions at Findmypast.

Suffolk: Baptism Index 1538-1911
Over 307,000 index records have been added to this existing collection. Covering 232 churches, too many to detail here, the additions for 1813-1900 are indicated as NEW at https://www.findmypast.com/articles/suffolk-baptism-index-place-list, which lists 576 churches in total. Northeast Suffolk has many additions; this release completes the set for 1813-1900 for Suffolk baptisms at Findmypast.
Thanks are due to the volunteers of the Suffolk Family History Society.
