HAVING RESEARCHED MY FAMILY TREE, I SEE THERE ARE STILL A LOT OF RECORDS TO TRANSCRIBE.  HOW DO I VOLUNTEER FOR THIS TASK?

You don't say where you live, but, as you've started this thread on the East Yorkshire Board, I'm assuming you're local to the area.

If you're particularly interested in local parish registers, why don't you approach either Beverley Archives or the East Yorkshire Family History Society?

Sorry Jill, I know you were helping (you've helped me in the past - thank you) it's just that I'd read the post with the link immediately prior to reading this thread and thought I would give it a wider audience.
