As a Findmypast Ambassador, I received this press release this morning:
New Records Available To Search
This Findmypast Friday
Over 455,000 new records are
available to search this Findmypast Friday, including;
Northamptonshire Baptisms contains
over 14,000 transcripts of original baptism records and covers 34 parishes
across the East Midlands county. These records have been transcribed by the
Northamptonshire Family History Society from parish registers found at the
Northamptonshire Record Office and cover the years 1559 through to 1901
The level of detail found each
transcript may vary although most will include a combination of your ancestor’s
baptism date, baptism place, the names of both parent’s, document reference,
page and entry number.
The Northampton General Hospital
was founded in 1744 by Dr James Stonhouse and supported by local benefactors
who paid for patient’s treatments through subscriptions. Today, the Northampton
General Hospital is still providing healthcare as part of the NHS Trust.
This collection consists of over
126,000 transcripts of original admission registers held by the
Northamptonshire record office. These transcripts will not only allow you to
discover whether your ancestors were admitted to the hospital, but also when
they were admitted, why they were admitted and the year they were discharged.
Most records will also reveal the nature of your ancestor’s ailment and the
outcome of their treatment.
Over 54,000 records covering more

mothers' names. The entire collection now contains over 168 million
records and continues to grow.
