An On-line Parish Clerk (OPC) is the repository of all
sorts of genealogical data relating to an adopted Parish. This can come from my
own transcripts of a wide range of documents as well as those donated by other
researchers that relate to the Parishes of Meavy, Roborough by Torrington, Sheepstor
& Walkhampton. These include, but are not limited
to: Parish Registers, Censuses, Land Tax Assessments, Tithe Apportionments,
Directories, etc. etc.
Through the auspices of GENUKI Devon On-Line
Parish Clerk Project and its webmaster, Brian Randell, over 185 of 500+
Parishes are now covered, benefiting researchers everywhere.
As with any secondary or tertiary genealogical
information, all information herein needs to be verified at source by
comparison with the original documents.
The term OPC as used here, refers to a repositor of genealogically related materials such as (but
not limited to) Church register transcripts, land tax assessments and census
information, and the OPC should in no way be confused with the Parish Council
appointed Parish Clerks. All OPCs are unpaid volunteers who are willing to
assist others in their genealogical research.
