NEW Nonconformist Collection
- Hampshire, England, Nonconformist Registers, 1835-1921 (58,487 records): The original data is from Methodist Registers. In some it was arranged in a narrative form with handwritten information inserted into spaces in the paragraphs. Other registers were arranged like ledgers with printed column headings and handwritten information inserted into the columns.
All these records derive from Hampshire Archives and Local Studies in Winchester.
Still waiting for them to move beyond 1921! My mum and her siblings were all baptized in Hampshire – it would be cool for her to see those parish register entries.
