Hi Mary
Thanks for the answer to that question.
My main interest is in Breconshire mostly Builth St Mary's and then Radnorshire.
Regards Linda

Hello Linda,
I asked a similar question recently as it seems that the LDS were
able to copy Bishops' Transcripts but often not allowed to get into
the Welsh churches to copy the PRs. (The BTs are the records sent by
priests to the bishops which didn't always contain the same
information as the PRs though I believe they were supposed to be
identical). This is the reply I had from Bryn Ellis of the
Montgomeryshire Genealogical Society:
>>>>>We, members of Montgomeryshire Genealogical
Society, are busy
transcribing the parish registers of the county and have
completed
Llanllwchaiarn and Berriew amongst a long list of others, mainly in
northern Monts. .....
We transcribed the registers but also went through the BTs to fill
gaps and help with illegible sections of the registers and therefore
provide a comprehensive coverage. Please see our society's
publications site at
http://home.freeuk.net/montgensoc/pages/pubns.htm
<<<<<<<
There's heaps to choose from on the site and I have sent for several
of the booklets and am eagerly awaiting their arrival - I anticipate
that they'll contain a lot more than the BTs!
Hope this helps,
Mary
I understood that some parish records where not included on the IGI
site.
If this is correct then are the missing records available at one of
the LDS family history centres?
Regards Linda
