The London Metropolitan Archives and the Guildhall Library have entered into partnership with Ancestry to digitise some of their Parish and Board of Guardians collections.
http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/Corporation/LGNL_Services/Leisure_and_culture/Records_and_archives/Ancestry+digitisation.htmThis is a major work in progress. Some of the Board of Guardians records are now searchable online. More of these records will be added in due course.
The addition of more baptism, marriage and burial records from the LMA collection to the Ancestry database has been eagerly awaited for several months now and are now on-line (15th September)
http://landing.ancestry.co.uk/lma/default.aspxHowever, please note:
It is not permitted to ask for, or offer lookups from, any commercial or copyrighted databases, for example Ancestry, Findmypast, The Genealogist, the IGI and others, too many to list here.
With ref to Ancestry, their terms state
"Online or other republication of Content is prohibited except as unique data elements that are part of a unique family history or genealogy."
Rootschat is not the place for any unique family history or genealogy and posting of their content here is prohibited.
The Copyright team works hard to ensure that any request or offer which contravenes the Terms & Conditions is dealt with by its removal. There is a "zero tolerance" deletion policy in place.
Rootschatters are also asked not to reply to these requests.
