Quite possibly Rosie, but I was responding to treesquirrel's statement about FindMyPast having more parish register images than Ancestry rather than other types of records.
I was not querying what you had posted, just adding to it
Sorry, its early.
I initially posted as was rather surprised at the statement from treesquirrel stating FindMyPast had more original parish registers than Ancestry, something that doesn't really appear to be supported by the evidence. Granted that Ancestry's exclusivity for Warwickshire PRs has obviously expired as they have been released on FindMyPast but otherwise I would still state that Ancestry have more. FindMyPast also have in my mind considerably more Parish Register transcripts than Ancestry. Both have data sets pulled from Familysearch, but in the case of FindMyPast some of the extra is due to the fact that much of the data that was on the Federation of Family History Societies' own website was transferred over to FindMyPast when it was closed down.
Both have the non-conformist registers that originally were exclusive to BMDRegisters and TheGenealogist and while FindMyPast has exclusivity on catholic registers, neither are really "parish registers" in the true sense of the usage in England and Wales anyway.
