Devon parish records fiches etc where do I get them? COMPLETED.
« on: Saturday 08 August 09 12:33 BST (UK) »
Hi,

This may be a dumb question, but where can I buy full sets of parish records?  I've just bought DFHS Totnes Diocese CD and was surprised to find not all entries included.  I have a separate database for cross referencing which seemed to have entries missing from the Totnes CD.

I'd like the 17th-early 18thC  entries for parishes in Totnes diocese - the CD only has marriages from 1752, and no early baptisms or burials as early - but I can't seem to find any early resources for sale on DFHS website or Devon Record Office.  I've asked for OPC look ups, but would like to obtain source material for myself.  I understand that microfiche sets were for sale but I can't seem to find them.

You can buy PRs on fiche from the Devon Record Office. There is a charge of £5 per register plus £1.50 per fiche. See http://74.125.47.132/search?q=cache:RxV2Tv9NLB8J:www.devon.gov.uk/index/councildemocracy/neighbourhoods-villages/record_office/services_policies/photocopying/copying_parish_registers.htm+%22devon+Record+Office%22+%2B+fiche&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us for full details.
The DFHS CDs contain marriages 1754-1837, baptisms 1813-1839 and burials 1813-1837, all transcribed from the parish registers, but not from the Bishop's Transcripts.

Thanks!   I was obviously looking in the wrong place :-[
That explains it  - my extra entries must have been BT's.

PLEASE NOTE:  I had trouble with the email link given as the contact address given on the page (link above), perplexed as to why I used  enquiries to customer[at]devon.gov.uk.
They kindly forwarded it.
