Bristol Register Office

A number of our volunteers have been assisting Bristol Register Office with the transcription of its collection of church registers, the information being loaded into a Council database with the intention of making the information available online. This has been managed with people working either at the Office or from home. Progress has been restricted by a number of factors including staff changes or shortages at the Office, changes in the Council technology systems, and the pandemic currently forcing the Office to have limited access to our volunteers.
