For blog visitors, I’ve arranged a 30-day free trial to TheGenealogist. In addition to the resources you’d expect, it has unique resources, such as the Lloyd George Domesday Survey, that you won’t find on more high-profile sites. It also provides enhanced capabilities. I recently used their occupation indexing on a census to better understand the community where an ancestral family lived. Why not give it a free trial?
TheGenealogist has just released 100,000 new early marriage entries from seven counties and national ecclesiastical sources. For the 16th to 19th centuries, the update helps researchers trace couples and family connections in periods and places where parish registers can be incomplete, damaged, or missing.
Newly released record sets include:
● London & National – Marriage Licences at the Faculty Office (1543–1869)
● Durham Marriage Bonds (1664–1674)
● Lancaster Marriage Bonds (1734–1738)
● Leicestershire Marriage Licences (1570–1729)
● Somerset – Bishops of Bath and Wells Marriage Allegation Bonds (1670-1755)
● Surrey Marriage Licences (1673–1770)
● Sussex Marriage Licences, Deaneries of Chichester, Pagham and Terring (1582–1730)
