Genealogy - Hereford - family history data CD

Yesterday's Names produces name index CDs for genealogists & family history researchers, based on Victorian parish magazines and other church publications. An entry about them in a parish magazine could give you an entirely new perspective on an ancestor, and open up potential new avenues of family history research. Alternatively, information in parish magazines about baptisms, marriages and burials might provide you with vital clues for your genealogy research, or help to fill gaps in your family tree.

The index for St. James, Hereford, contains basic details of people-related events described in the monthly issues of the parish magazine published in 1889 including Baptisms, Marriages, Deaths (including age at death, and residence), Prizes (Temperance Society), Advertisements, and Miscellaneous records. There are over 200 name references in this index.

This index is rather different to most other indexes produced by Yesterday’s Names. In his article in the Parish Magazine each month, the Vicar described many activities in the parish, but did not name any of the participants. As a result, relatively few names are included in this index, but most of the articles that described parish events have been transcribed here, since although they do not name individuals they still paint a picture of parish life.

The following surnames are listed in this index :-

Acton Amphlett Askwith Atlay Attwood Badham Baird Barrell Barrett Bassett Beavan Bishop Blackford Bound Brace Brewer Bridges Broad Bromley Brown Bufton Bye Caldwell Capner Carr Chance Chandler Clarke Clements Coles Constance Corbett Davies Durrant Dyke Earle Evans Floyd Fowler Gagg Gapper George Green Griffith Griffiths Gwatkin Hadcocks Hall Handcocks Harding Hargest Harman Harris Hartland Harvey Hatton Heath Higley Hill Hoddinott Hook Hughes Hundley Jaine James Jennings Johnson Jones Keeling Keene Knowles Lawrence Lewis Lloyd Lord Macready Marchant Mason May McDonald Meredith Minett Morden Morgan Morris Mould Nash Noble Palmer Phillips Pitt Preece Presgrave Pritchard Pullen Pye Rawlings Read Reed Richards Robbins Roberts Robins Rowberry Rowe Rudge Saunders Scott Sherston Smith Soobroy Spencer Stanton Steadman Symonds Taylor Taysom Toulson Tudor Turk Tye Veare Verney Walker Wall Ward Watkins Watts Went Weston Wheeler White Whitmore Whittingham Wigley Williams Wilson Witherstone Witney Woodward Wright

The index is in Adobe Acrobat pdf format, and a copy of Adobe Reader is provided on each CD.

(Please note that the years given above are those in which the magazines were published, not necessarily the years in which the events described occurred.)
