Llanwnog and Montgomery Parish Records Now Online

Via the Powys Rootsweb Mail List comes the following news:

I am pleased to announce that the following records have been added online:

Baptisms:
Llanwnog 1669-1873
Montgomery 1575-1880

Marriages:
Llanwnog 1669-1837
Montgomery 1575-1837

Burials:
Llanwnog 1669-1882
Montgomery 1575-1850

They are to be found on: Findmypast.com. The parish records of 46 Montgomeryshire parishes can now be found on this site.

These transcriptions are the work of a small group of members of the Montgomeryshire Genealogical Society. These will be published in booklet form, but there is currently a backlog in the printing of these booklets so we trust that  the appearance of the records online will help researchers.

Gaps or difficult to read passages in the parish registers have been supplemented by use of the Bishop's Transcripts so we believe that the finished product is as comprehensive and inclusive as it is possible to be.

For a full list of the society's publications and details of membership please see our website: home.freeuk.net/montgensoc/
