What would the district be?
« on: Sunday 15 August 10 18:44 BST (UK) »
Hi

I've started looking into my Wiltshire relatives and wondered where B, M & Ds would be registered if the person was living in Oaksey? I'm mainly looking at the 1800s if that helps.

Not being local to the area, I have no idea!

Thanks
Kim

It would be Malmsebury

This is a wonderful website for finding that type of info - I'd be lost without it
