Forest of Dean RecordsForest of Dean Parish Records ProjectWe are continually adding to the database and we are well on the way in making available the transcribed, Baptism, Marriage and Burial records of all the Parish Churches and Non-conformist Chapels within the Forest of Dean. Also, we have many bordering Herefordshire and Monmouthshire Parish Church records in the database.
The records are available freely for all to search but donations to help cover some of the costs of the project are always appreciated.
