Hav eseen them availble for £30 but didnt know if this was really worth the money? As most headstones are illegible or hidden undergrowth, just wondered if anyone had used them?

I have them. The information is taken from parish burial registers, not from headstones. The coverage is very variable - some counties have no entries at all. Not the best £30 I've ever spent. Judith

Thanks Judith, thought it might be worth a try as I have only found one Thresher burial, in the cemetary that should contain them all, and that was under a lot of under growth! Its a bit difficult to get to the research libraries when you work all the week. Donna Donna
