Ron Lankshear's Genealogy Research Links
My focus on research is England:
LDS church has IGI which covers many UK parish registers some from 1538 but Please
note not all PRs are on IGI
Direct to IGI or 1881
Census or check Ron's Intro to Parish Registers (PRs)
Then from 1837 Civil Registration FreeBMD 1837-1901 (more Birth Marriage Death links)
Quick links to some of my most popular pages
BMD -- Census -- Counties -- Directories -- Maps -- Military -- PRs
in response to frequently asked questions
on lists
