Default Wiltshire Marriage Index 1538-1837 and Quaker records - ancestry

These are new on ancestry today:
Wiltshire Marriages 1538-1837
Wiltshire Quaker Births 1636-1837
Wiltshire Quaker Deaths 1542-1897


I'm not quite sure where these records have come from as the source information says "Original data: Private donor."

The information about the Marriages database says: This collection is an index to more than 260,000 marriages from all 327 Wiltshire parishes, with dates ranging from 1538 to December 1837. The index includes details extracted from parish registers, bishop’s transcripts, marriage bonds, banns, Quaker marriages and other documents.

I presume that the images for the Quaker records would be available on the BMD Registers site / The Genealogist.

I'm wondering whether the new ancestry database is connected with the Nimrod Marriage Index? Anyone know?

I don't know about the Nimrod index Kate but what is on ancestry does not seem to cover much more than familysearch has on their site. I did only have a quick look though.

The Wiltshire and Swindon Family History Centre are starting to put their wills online though. There is an index and some of the wills have been digitised.
