So far as I know, the Free-set (-BMD, -REG, -CEN) would all be delighted to recruit a volunteer! Many of the Local FHS groups have projects in hand. In either case, I believe that they quite accept that you would be more willing to transcribe an area which is likely to include people from your tree.

I had not thought of the local FHS. As for the the Free-set (-BMD, -REG, -CEN), I did not know if they were looking for transcribers, perhaps because I have not used them much.
Hugo thanks for the offer. I was actually joking but I do have some wills to transcribe if you really want to. I haven't actually got the Bainton, Yorkshire parish records so that will remain on my wish list.
