Further to my earlier thread about tracking my Ariels back to when they arrived in Bristol, I had a reply from Bristol Records Office.
They said that while they hold the non- conformist records, a lot are not contained in their published material. They gave me a list of professional researchers.
So, am I right in thinking that they have the records, but you have to go to their office and search through each church's records individually?
Can anyone do that or do you need a "professional"?
I've never done that (not that I could get to UK anyway) but how long would it take, say, to do church? I'm expecting there could be about 5 or 6 possibles.
