batch numbers for barrow in furnes...help me please!!!!
« on: Tuesday 21 October 08 14:39 BST (UK) »
Hi, I think I am either going mad or loosing my eye sight! I just can not find the Barrow in Furness batch numbers anywhere. I've looked under Cumbria, it's not there, so I looked at Lancashire, which I know that Barrow used to come under...still not there! I also tried Westmoreland with no luck. I did ask for help a few months ago, and a very kind soul gave me the batch number for St. Johns' baptisms 1876-1921. Unfortunately my ancestors aren't on there. I've googled just about all combinations I can think of..still no luck. If anyone can help, I would be soooo grateful!! Many thanks in advance.

What time period?

Barrow was only a small village before c1850 and part of the parish of Dalton in Furness so the Dalton IGI batches may be the ones you seek.
