Default Hampshire records will be on Ancestry!

https://www.hants.gov.uk/News/202108...V-KqVb8ty-DHxs

It will include wills! That's great news; perhaps I shall be able to trace my Purkis family back further.

We might have to wait until the end of 2022.

As the PRs are already on FMP, although not some of the older ones, it is the wills which I'm really looking forward to.

I'm still waiting for the East Sussex records to turn up on Ancestry. Wasn't that supposed to be this year?
Edit - this did happen in the end.

It's supposed to be this year, so they only have a few weeks to meet that deadline now.

Are there any updates on the parish registers? Despite HGS indexes, and swathes of stuff available for decades on FamilySearch (back to the days of the CGI!) I have huge holes in my research.

Phoenix, I find that with Hampshire it is very difficult to do any meaningful research before the 1750s. There aren't any PRs on Ancestry.

They were supposed to be made available on Ancestry last year so hopefully they are coming soon.
