Hello David

Thank you and all the others who have created and are maintaining this wonderful site.

You asked for suggestions for searching the Parish Records. It would be very helpful to be able to search and retrieve records for any name recorded in the transcript including parents names and witnesses. Also to use the operator AND in order to refine the search. This information can help verify if the transcript for a baptism or marriage is the correct record - there are so many identical names of individuals who lived in the Forest of Dean. As the database increases in size it would be helpful to be able to refine the search.

Thank you once again for your dedicated work.

Jean Pritchard
