I therefore have removed all entries from this source that did not have a specific date. I reasoned that if a person did not know the date of a Christening, Marriage or Burial it was a guess and therefore suspect.

Even then there a numerous LDS entrys I still have doubts about. There are a couple of classics, where two individuals get married in two or more churches in different locations on the same day. I'll let you make up your minds on the authenticity of this information.

In most cases I have listed where an entry was obtained from ie. LDS, 1851 & 1881 Census, Parish Register or Newspaper Entry, etc, etc. I've tried my best to keep this data correct, but, one or two errors may have have slipped through. So always recheck any result from other sources "before you set your conclusions in stone"

This database is only intended to be used as an investigative tool and should not be used to replace proper genealogical methods such as obtaining copies of original documents etc.

I personally use Microsoft Access and you will note the data that will come up when you access the link below is all delineated ie. separated by commas. This will allow you to import the file into Microsoft Access which I assume most of you will have.

What you should end up with is a file that consists of 13 columns which are labled as follows "Mother" "Father" "Spouse" "First Name" "Family Name" "Sex" "Date" "Comments" "year of birth" "place of birth" "occupation" "Parish" "Town" "County" "Reference (where data came from)"

The smart stuff happens when you start to play with each of the fields ie sorting ascending or decending then cutting and pasting parts you wish into another data base to narrow your search even further. The uses this can be put to are only limited by your imagination.
