Maritime History Archive[edit | edit source]

This archives’ holdings relate to fishery, trade and settlement, and therefore will be of great interest to genealogists. Some of their collections were compiled from parish registers. They do not have the records on computer but do specify where there are name indexes to the records. It is a worthwhile site to visit. They have research services but you will need to provide the location of the parish. Visit their website for more detailed information.
