to be transcribed and surname indexes are also complete. Matlock
Green, Matlock Cliff, Lime Tree Hill, Matlock Town, Riber. This

Site changes:
-Images. As I felt
the Index was getting too cumbersome I have completely redesigned
the navigation, creating several new pages to search so that
all the old sub headings are on their own page. You now enter
through the index and then can choose between any of ten sections
to browse through. |
New pages:
- 1891 Census of
Matlock & Matlock Bath - transcript of ED14, which is
on two pages here as it covers a large number of properties.
1365 additional names and surname indexes of transcripts done
to date. Matlock Moor, Hurst, Wellington Street, Rutland Street,
Chesterfield Road, Bank Road, Crown Square, New Street. The
final district is in preparation, but I do not know when I will
be able to finish this at the moment.

once is the QuickList, and this is purely for information purposes.

a link at the bottom, similar to what is shown in the footer
of this page. The remaining pages will be linked over the coming
weeks. |

(Cox's "Churches") and reduced in size.
