Carn Card
« on: Saturday 03 August 19 11:55 BST (UK) »
Hi,
Done search and can't find this subject so starting new topic.  I'm planning a 'field trip' week after next and trying to find out if the 'New CARN card' is up and running, and how can I get one quickly.

I first came across it a few weeks ago during online research but now all I can find is out of date info, the latest being that there was a delay on release from April 2019 untill August 2019 (which it is now). It also said you could get them at your local l.ibrary and told you what ID you'd need etc.  Unfortunately I can't find that web page any more nor any up-to-date news.

If anyone out there knows and could reply on here by Thursday 8th, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks

I'd suggest that if you have an idea of which Archives you will be visiting, why not get in touch and ask them what the current situation is.
Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.
Remember - "They'll be found when they want to be found" !!!
If you don't ask the question, you won't get an answer.

Thank you both for your responses.
 
Jebber, yes I have seen that page and it's from March saying the card is delayed untill August.  Well it is August and I would imaging if it had been implemented by now, they would have announce it.  This means it is imminent or we're about to get another 'delayed' announcement.

Bumble, no I'm not sure which records offices I will need.  Certainly Derbyshire (Matlock), which I intend to ring tomorrow, but the parish, ecclesiastical, county boundary change over the years.  The same family living in same village (even same house) could have been born in Derbyshire or Nottinghamshire over the generations.  And even in the same county their dwelling could be registered as  Calver, Culver, Belper, Loscoe etc etc., depending on what year they were born, married and died lol.
The whole point of this new CARN card is that it will be valid in all counties in the UK so a readers card is not required for each record office you visit.

Whatever, just make sure that you have some form of identity with you.  :)
