Link: Manchester Cathedral

Whereas with other records the "Another Filming" batches tend to be viewable and the other ones not for these records it seems to be the other way round but give them all a try as access conditions can change over time:-

Good point you made about the workhouse.

They have been available for a while, and used by us on Rootschat.
Excellent resource!

Yes great resource particularly good for marriages. I don't have many links for Family Search images for Manchester area but this is one I had on Liverpool & SW Lancs FHS forum as it was particularly useful for checking marriages.

Thank you for the link.  I've never looked through the catalog before, I always just go to search, records - a whole new world has just opened up for me.

It's trial and error exploring what is and what isn't available to view at home. Access can change too. Last year Lancs Records were available then earlier this year they were not viewable at home and more recently a lot of Lancs records are now viewable at home again but when signed in to Family Search. The Lancs records don't allow downloads so you have to take a copy of what's on the screen. As these image only records can't be found via search it's hard work getting through them but minimising and maximising the images and changing page numbers in 50s, 100s and 200s etc can speed things up so you get to the date or quarter you want quicker.

There have been a couple of posts about this over the last few months.

The Liverpool images have been available since last year there were too many links to fit into one RootsChat post that's how many different churches, cemeteries etc are available. A huge amount of images. It needs someone with local knowledge to go through each Manchester church, cemetery, directories, workhouses etc and compile a list of viewable links. I created some guidance notes last year about accessing these images:-
