Legacy Family Tree Webinars will host a free webinar, English Parish Records: More than Hatch, Match and Dispatch, presented by Australian genealogist Helen V. Smith, today, April 30, at 10:00 p.m. Eastern time. (See below about the recording available later.)
Most people are familiar with the baptism, marriage and burial records found in parish records but there are many other wonderful parish records that can help in genealogical research. These include Vestry minutes, Churchwarden Accounts, settlement certificates, examinations and removal orders, Parish poor rates and relief distribution, Parish apprenticeships, parish payments for work done within the parish, parish assisted emigration and more.
If this presentation is a good as Ms. Smith’s webinar about researching in Australian archives, it should be one worth watching.
Register here to watch the live webinar. It will likely be recorded and available to watch for free for up to seven days afterward in the webinar library.
