Hello AJ,
Thank you for all your help in the past and for this link. I was able to find my ancestor
Thomas Jones from Llanafan fawr in the index with his complete birthdate and place of
birth as well as were and when he ministered. I did not have his complete
birthdate......so thanks again.
Robert Price

Subject: [POWYS] Congregational/Independent clergy: Charles Surman's index launched
[Quoting from another group]
"Charles Surman's extraordinary biographical card index of Congregational
ministers includes the names of about 32,000 individuals, and, where known,
their dates, details of their education, ministries or other employment,
together with the sources used. It covers the period from the
mid-seventeenth century to 1972, and though it focuses on England and Wales,
it includes Congregational ministers serving abroad provided they trained or
served as ministers in Britain.
Although intended as an index of Congregational ministers, it also gives
details of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Presbyterians.
Further information can be found on the website where the index can now be
freely searched online
http://surman.english.qmul.ac.uk "
*************
(Baptist, Methodist and Unitarian ministers are not included. Note,
however, that an index of Unitarian obituaries is available at
http://www.unitarianobituaries.org.uk/, whilst
http://www.archive.org/details/alphabeticalarra00hilliala is helpful for the
careers of Methodist ministers between 1791-1892.)
