The Cambs entries on the NBI are by and large the same as can be found on the Burial Index on the Cambs FHS website, which covers 1801-37, at http://www.cfhs.org.uk/Search.html

I'm not aware that the boundaries have changed in that part of Cambs - Gamlingay and Hatley St George have always been in Cambs. Sandy has always been in Beds

Googling Hatley St George still left me confused, is it Beds or Cambs. ?   Have a look at this site, 2nd para., that might help.

Ignore the modern postal address - the parish of Hatley St George has always been in Cambs, and appears on the NBI under Cambs. See http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/CAM/HatleyStGeorge/index.html
