I wrote yesterday about the new North Wales BMD website. Dafydd Hayes one of
the co-ordinators of the site tells me that one area which is short on
volunteers to go into the registration offices to photocopy the indices so that they
can be distributed to transcribers around the world is the "new" Gwynedd
County.
If there are any list members who live conveniently close to any of these
offices, and are willing to spend a few hours photocopying, or if you have any
friends or family who can be roped in to help can you please contact either
Dafydd or Vic Roberts:
Dafydd Hayes
gwefeistr(a)northwalesbmd.org.
Vic Roberts
webmaster(a)northwalesbmd.org.uk
Here is a list of the district offices that need doing:
Register Office, Town Hall, Bangor, Gwynedd LL57 2RE
Register Office, Swyddfa Arfon, Caernarfon, Gwynedd LL55 1BN
Register Office, 35 High Street, Pwllheli, Gwynedd LL53 5RT
Register Office, Bryn Marian, Church Street, Blaenau Ffestiniog, Gwynedd LL41
3HD
Register Office, Fron Fair, High Street, Y Bala, Gwynedd LL23 7AD
Register Office, Cae Penarlag, Dolgellau, Gwynedd LL40 2YB.
I'm sure that Dafydd & Vic would also be pleased to hear from anybody who
doesn't live close to one of the offices, but would like to transcribe some of
the copies obtained from them.
Regards
Alwyn
