Then search Records,       specifying that film number, name, date of death and place of death       Upperby, Cumberland. You will then see the records you have already       seen (at Ancestry?) but with the added knowledge that these are       transcriptions of Parish Registers.              (Pity that the LDS don't include the film number and/or title in the       Citation they suggest.)              --       Jenny M Benson       Wrexham, UK              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
