Ooops. I think you might want to take a look at that “detailed list of the churches”. The first entry reads “All Saints”. Yes… any particular All Saints? The 2nd reads “Baptist Church”. Yes… that’s all it says.
Clearly(?) the original would have given the name of a town in front of the phrase “Baptist Church” – it’s in alphabetical order now, so whether a sort has separated the town-name from the church-name, I don’t know. A bit sad that, because a list of churches covered in the update is exactly what we need to see!
Hi Adrian,
Thanks for your comment. We’ve replaced the list with a more detailed version – this should prove a bit more helpful.
Many thanks,
Jess (findmypast.co.uk digital content manager)
Much better thanks!
