As a true believer that Parish records are OURS and not sold to a big Organisation, a site like this, The Forest of Dean, is well just priceless and well worth the effort of anyone taking time out to transcribe the Parish records and other documents and Donate. This site was a true find in my own research as my family was lost, even though someone PAID a genealogist to research my line they were left blank, using these records, I made the connection.

I must say being part of the team sorting out Monmouthshire I made another break through last night and found another relative who has been missing, lucky it was A he was top of list I looked at!!!

We are currently making progess into creating a new Monmouthshire site, bare with us, it has been very time consuming so far, but we will get there, there are strong connections/crossovers with FOD & Mon parishes so together we will hopefully sort.

Have you tried opening a yahoo account and searching for groups in your Scotish area, thats how I found the Monmouth one, and since loads of Somerset ones?
