Tracing Your Ancestors in Worcestershire

How to Use

This section lists sources of information of interest to those researching families whose roots are in the old county of Worcestershire, as it existed prior to the reorganisation of local government in 1974. The information is shown parish by parish. The project is ongoing and you are invited to send comments, additions, corrections etc to Arthur Lewis.

The Parishes are listed alphabetically. Each time you click on a Parish a separate Window / Tab will open, if your browser uses tabs. This allows you to have a number of Parishes open at any one time.

When looking at the details in a Parish, links are available which provide explanatory information related to those details, including sources, definitions and also some useful addresses. These can also be seen below.
