Locations for research

Dorset: most original records are held in the Dorset History Centre in Dorchester; this now houses the local studies collection as well as the Dorchester Museum collection. The Dorset Archives Catalogue can now be accessed online at www.dorsetforyou.com but the original documents can only be seen at the History Centre. These include:overseers papers; estate papers; property deeds; court records; parish records. Most of the wills proved within the county are also in the Dorset History Centre; an index will be going online later this year. Some Dorset wills are in the diocesan record office in Wiltshire; those wills for Dorset people proved in the PCC are held in the PRO in London.

Somerset: most original records for Somerset are held in the Somerset Heritage centre near Taunton which also houses the collection of material formerly held in the Somerset Studies Library..

Wiltshire: The new Wiltshire and Swindon History Centre, in Chippenham, is where most of the original records are kept for the county of Wiltshire. It is also the Diocesan Record Office, so it is home to a large collection of original wills proved within the Salisbury Diocese.
