hi - i have got back as far as 1851

- can anyone tell me how to go about searching now

i assume we would look in the parish records
i seem to recall that you can buy parish records etc on
cd- rom but cant seem to find any info on that now and i am beginning to wonder if i imagined it!
the place i am after is sible hedingham in ESSEX -
can you buy these? - do they cover more than one parish?
or all they all a figment of my imagination???

i am moving out of the country soon so if i can obtain these cd roms that will make my search easier
many thanks
pootle
