In theory it would be YorkshireBMD (same software as Cheshire etc) but there doesn't seem to be coverage  ::)

I did find this on the local council's website - I haven't tried it!

In my opinion the marriage residence is not always the place of birth. Never forget Workhouse and overseers accounts records of birth

Hi

It surprising how many people post requesting for sources or FH info and people searching/surfing the net to  or help the request reply! when there is info wanted is already there on this website search tab  also look at the resources board

A Chesterfield and Doncaster search may find links also and YORK or MATLOCK

If you can give us an idea what dates and coverage also abode or names of BMD's in Sheffield  ??? maybe someone may know! more online resources or even visit the repositories in Sheffield.

Its best to think it out exactly what you want to request for and post all your total knowledge you have  on the issue! then allow the brains on here to start grinding to help you and there are some knowledgeable people.
