Title: Wyke Regis Parish Registers
Post by: BumbleB on Tuesday 30 October 18 16:27 GMT (UK)
An added back-stop  :)

I've been looking, on Dorsetopc (a wonderful facility), at the parish registers for Wyke Regis.  I've noted that there are NO burials recorded, via the parish registers or BT's, for 1864.  Any ideas anyone?  I have sent a message to them, and await a response. 

I have also sent a message (no telephone numbers available) to Dorset History Centre asking the same question - according to their catalogue entry there is no gap for 1864.

Just wondered if anyone knew something  :-\

Just had another look at Dorsetopc AND there are no baptisms in 1864 either  :-\

Possibly because they have not been transcribed, the digital images are available on Ancestry.

Doh, I didn't look there  :-[ :-[

Added:  I have apologised for troubling both Dorsetopc and Dorset History Centre  :-[

It is so easy to forget the obvious when we are desperately searching for something, we all do it. :)
