    Default Liverpool & Merseyside online sources

    These are links to some of the sites that I find useful for online research in the Liverpool & Merseyside area. All are free to search.

    Lancashire BMD "Register Offices in the county of Lancashire, England, hold records of local births, marriages & deaths back to the start of civil registration in 1837. The county's Family History Societies are collaborating with local Registration Services to make indexes to these records freely searchable via the Internet." https://lancashirebmd.org.uk/
    n.b. Romas Catholic marriages are usually listed under "Register Office or Registrar Attended", ie no church named, on this site. Try cross-referencing with Liverpool Area RC Marriage Index (see below).

    Liverpool Poll Book 1832 by Liverpool & SW Lancs FHS

    https://www.liverpool-genealogy.org.u...llbook1832.htm


    Old Liverpool by Caryl Williams. All sorts on this site, mostly from old newspapers. Old Liverpool snippets & miscellany, extracts from newspapers, obits, sections on churches, ships, theatres.
    www.old-liverpool.co.uk

    Hibernia - Links to marriages in the Liverpool area.
    https://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb....ernia/marr.htm

    Liverpool Area RC Marriage Index Very useful for finding Roman Catholic marriages as these are rarely included on the IGI & Liverpool has a large RC population.
    https://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb....ia/mar/mar.htm

    Lancashire Wiil Search - must admit, I've never found any of my lot on this site, but I live in hope!
    https://www.xmission.com/~nelsonb/lws.htm

    Mike Royden's Local History Pages - Local History of Liverpool and its Hinterland
    https://www.btinternet.com/~m.royden/mrlhp/index.html


    Little Crosby Church - this is a great site, started by Anna Rosemary Tumilty when she was 13. As well as transcriptions of gravestones in St Mary's, Little Crosby, there are also all sorts of useful links, particularly for RC families. I found many of the above links via this site.

    Scottie Press - masses of information about the Scotland Road area of Liverpool.
    https://www.scottiepress.org/main.htm

    Toxteth.net - defines "Toxteth to mean the original boundaries of the Royal and Ancient Park of Toxteth, delimited in 1207 by King John". Again, masses of information & links.

    I found this link useful for early Poll Book records and more. Keith Tinkler is extremely helpful.

    Although this is not Liverpool/Lancs I found several of my kin on the Wharfedale & Craven Genealogical Study site. This seems to cover a good sized chunk of Yorkshire from Harrogate to Leeds etc. I have found births and marriages back to 1730s.
