Ancestry has been busy beavering away at Hampshire parish records and has just added the early 1536-1812 records which were often kept in a single register.
The 1,999,963 transcriptions are linked to images of the original entry. Browsing around you may find notations of interest. Records for the parish of Overton include the notation that on “October 2nd, 1783 a Duty of three pence takes place on each burial by Act of Parliament.”
This is fantastic news. This will help fill in a lot of gaps in my wife’s and my own Hampshire heritage. I now only have to concentrate on the other Parish records when I next go to the Archives in Winchester.
Thank you for sharing
