On a recent visit to Lincolnshire archives and spotting some volunteers transcribing records it reminded me of the unsung work carried out by family history societies. These records are carefully transcribed and checked and are much more reliable than some other transcriptions. Buying the resultant CDs or on-line downloads is well worth the money, not only to support the FHS financially, but can generate links or ideas on the home computer which may not be seen with on-line sites.
It's great work you are doing and much appreciated. In this case to the Lincolnshire Family History Society, but to others also.
Here's another really useful resource for Lincolnshire marriages (post 1837)
