Don't know if this off or on topic - I'm sure Mary will put it in the right place. Just been browsing and came across the above site. Amongst many other things it has a Texts section where one can put in queries. As I have Shropshire ancestors I entered Shropshire parish registers. There are over fifty volumes, all printed and available online but not comprehensive ie not everywhere in Shropshire by any means - I couldn't find mine.

So being bored I put in Liverpool parish registers. Not much of a hit....but there was one inventory of church contents and included in it was the first transcript of St. Nichs. 1660- 1672 no good to me as I can't get back anywhere near.

If you already knew this my apologies but I thought there might be some people who didn't know - like me, who would be interested.
