Can anyone tell me if it's possible to buy a c.d. or similar of BMDS in Horsemonden from 1700s - 1800s. [I have seen the M.I.s online which show only the wife of one member.]
I need to re-research the family I had thought sorted, but which now appears to swing from broken limbs & missing twigs.
Any one with Humphrey connections feel free to jump in here ;)
TIA

I don't know about the 18th century, but the spelling is now Horsmonden
(just in case that helps in the search).

Thank you wee Hugh, I'd never had problems with the spelling before as most sites have their own. Mine mainly taken from censuses.
Given the offerings I've seen so far, it was quite close. Perhaps I initiated it due to another which has ? spellings in Southwark.
So are there any relevant c.d.s for Horsmonden that you know of?

Kent Family History Society has a CD of West Kent Marriages? (CD #36).
This includes Horsmonden.
Otherwise it looks like it will have to be Kent History & Library Centre.

Thank you KGarrad, I guess it doesn't give years?
I'd join Kent F.H. but am not encouraged by the words: join now & it covers you until June. My bank is not that flush. [no longer of working age]
Perhaps later when I get full worth for money, not knowing what they actually offer.

Hi Wendy
KFHS also sells microfiche for Horsmonden
1798 Horsmonden CMB 1558 - 1732 + Marriages 1733 - 1837
That doesn't really cover the time period you want for baptisms and burials though.
If you would like to give details of what you are looking for I can check my copy..assuming it is still readable! I haven't looked at it for some time but my recollection is that there is no index so rough dates would help a lot. I assume you have checked entries on Family Search?
