Cheddar Parish Indexes
« on: Sunday 14 March 10 17:51 GMT (UK) »
Hi,

Does anyone know if there are any Cheddar Parish Records online?  I have a few anomalies in my Cooper family which need sorting out but they are quite late being 1869 to 1885.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Elizabeth

I agree with Steve that the Somerset Hundreds groups on Yahoo are very useful. I've joined several of them. However, I don't think that any Cheddar transcriptions are on there yet, although other members of the groups should be able to help you.

There's a few very early ones on FreeReg (1734 to abt 1775) - far too early for you but later ones appear to be in the pipeline.

Regards

Angela

Hi,

Thanks to all of you that answered my post. 

I belong to Winterstoke Group and as Angela says, Cheddar is not on file yet.
I apologise for not answering before but I was caught up in the cancelled flight problems and had to spend an extra week away.

As soon as I have caught up with my mail, I will ask the questions I need answers to, both here and  on the Winterstoke Group site.

Thanks again,
Elizabeth
