A Tour of Ormskirk Churchyard 

A really good place to start is actually the Lancashire Online Parish Clerks website; it's completely free to search and their volunteers have transcribed the burial registers from 1557 to 1645, then 1658 to 1906. Our society has also published gravestone transcriptions for different sections of the graveyard, and if you follow the link to our Parish Chest shop, you can find a description of each of the different sets of Ormskirk church records, which might be helpful if you're trying to find out whether people with a particular surname had a gravestone. (Not everyone did, and a lot were moved - I think in the 19th century - but some of our members have done research to try to match them to their original locations.) If we can help with anything else, please let us know.

@@odfhs Thank you so much! Yes I will reach out. Is there an email to reach you at?
