Online Parish rcords

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone knows if there is a Nottinghamshire Online parish records site at all? Cant seem to find one if there is.

Thanks

No, there is not one site that has all Nottinghamshire records. Depending on where in the county you are interested, there are some site such as East Midlands Genealogy that contain parish records for a few parishes.

The coverage of Notts parishes at FreeREG is growing, though many of their records are transcribed from earlier transcriptions rather than the original records.

The Notts Family History Society publish a CD which contains a vast number of parishes. If you have many Notts ancestors, it is well worth the cost.

And failing that, you can post your query here on RootsChat, and someone may be able to visit the Nottingham Archives for you (if you can't go yourself).

Here is another useful site for Nottinghamshire

http://dustydocs.com.au/county/29/nottinghamshire.html?country_id=1

It shows which parishes have been transcribed and for what years, including one place studies and contains MI's for certain parishes.

Thanks for that. Will take a look and see if can find anything on those sites.

There are quite a lot of printed registers available on the internet archive.  Unfortunately, how good a title they put on a volume of Registers depends on the librarian uploading it - and quite a lot unhelpfully have Nottinghamshire Register without a volume number or any description.  These are the ones I have found so far:

Hi,

Just so you know, many (if not most) of Phillimore's transcriptions (the links you provided) are fully indexed and searchable on FreeREG now.

I didn't know that!  Thanks for the information.

Hi,

Thanks for the info . Unfortunately those parishes are not ones I can use at the moment. However I did find a "west midlands" one which contains those I needed (only back to 1700 though). Still trying to find a Nottingham one. Have used free reg site which has a few of the ones I need also.

Does anyone know where you can see enlistment records for soldiers around 1720 ? Trying to find out exactly when John Wood joined up etc.

Thanks very much.
