    Default Parish records

    I need to research the parish records for Wetherall / Cumwhinton, which is in Cumbria. Could anyone advise me of any web sites that I may be able to get this information from.



    Thanks

    Chris

    Hi Elsabels

    Thanks for your information Im sure that will of great help. The person I am researching at the moment is my 3rd great grandfather Robert Moffat and his wife Jane. He was living in Kikrlinton, but in 1836 they appear to be living in Wetherall.



    If you could help with this.

    Hello



    Your enquiry was Parish Records on the 'net. few and far between and none that I am aware of for Cumberland I have been searching the area for over 30 years from Cheshire.

    The records for this area are held at the Record office in Carlisle the Archivist are pro Family Historians and most helpful. If you cannot make visit they may be able to help with photo copying.....otherwise the family history soc I gave you the link to have members who will look and get the info for you!



    Check out this site for further info related to Cumberland www.genuki..org.uk
