FindMyPast 'Complete' Welsh PRs?
« on: Tuesday 10 July 12 16:52 BST (UK) »
Has anyone got a word out of Find My Past as to the numerous issues with their Welsh parish register collection?

I have been looking forward to it for a year, but have not been able to solve any brick walls because:

- about half of Denbighshire entries are not linked to a parish pre-1812, which makes them useless
- there are numerous unexplained gaps in registers where the originals exist, e.g. for one parish there are burials from 1793-1812, 1870-19XX and I know the registers exist for 1813-1869
- there are numerous parishes that don't extend as far back as the registers go for not explicable reason
- there are some missing parishes, which I have not been explained (I know about 40 parishes are not included due to ecclesiastical politics)

I'd like to know if they are going to fix or address any of these problems. Are there more registers to come? But knowing FindMyPast I've not bothered to contact them as there will either be no or an uninformative reply.
