Findmypast Friday: new baptisms, probate indexes and newspaper pages

Essex Baptisms

Over 169,000 new transcripts have been added to Essex baptisms. Unique to Findmypast, these new additions, covering a wide range of parishes and date ranges, will reveal your ancestor’s date and location of birth, date and location of baptism, residence, parents’ names and father’s occupation.

 

See Findmypast’s Essex parish list for details of the new arrivals, along with locations and years covered across the entire collection.

Devon Baptisms

Findmypast’s Devon collection continues to grow with over 45,000 Methodist baptism records. These new additions cover 73 churches and span from 1837-1919.

 

The collection now contains over 2.7 million records spanning 400 years of the maritime county’s history.
