Cornwall OPC site
« on: Sunday 01 November 09 22:49 GMT (UK) »
Hi :)

Does anyone  know if all the parish registers are listed on the Cornwall OPC site?

Sometimes I see Rootschatters getting info from other Rootschatters that isn't listed on the site ???

Thanks Cancan :)

Hi Cancan,

No all parishes/years are not covered at this stage.

For Coverage please see

http://www.cornwall-opc-database.org/coverage.php

Some of us have other resources we use - I myself have quite a bit of microfiche etc I use as do other RootsChatters.

Just because something has not been transcribed in the OPC database as yet, does not mean it is not findable by RootsChatters using other sources.

If you have any queries please post them and we will try to help you.

Cheers Kris  :)

The OPC project is ongoing. People are furiously transcribing all the time but the records cannot go online until a batch is finished and some batches are VERY long.

Also, do contact the relevant OPC. They will most likely have records in addition to those that are in the database and will be prepared to do "look-ups" eg I have just had some look-ups done for Redruth.
