BLACKPOOL PUBLIC LIBRARIES
LOCAL AND FAMILY HISTORY CENTRE
SELECTED RESOURCES FOR FAMILY HISTORY, 2016
TABLE OF CONTENTS
With the exception of those items contained in Sections D1, E, F1, F2, F4 and G, all the items
listed here relate particularly to Blackpool and the Fylde .
All the items in this listing are available in the Local & Family History Centre on the first floor of
Blackpool Central Library. Most of them are on open shelves. The Classification Scheme used is
Lancashire County Library’s Local Studies Classification Scheme, 4th edn. 1998, a copy of which is
available at the Enquiry Desk. Please ask a member of staff if you require help in finding items.
Some items are in microfilm, microfiche or CDRom format, and this is indicated in the text. Users are
recommended to make an advance booking of a film or fiche reader, or, for CDRoms, the “standalone”
PC. Copies can be made from microfilm and fiche, subject to machine availability.
The Library’s stocks are strong in Fylde area and Lancashire sources. Those whose family history
research takes them further afield should see particularly sections E, F4 and G2.
The Library has recently acquired some Cheshire and Yorkshire parish registers, mostly on
microfiche. Lists of this material are available separately.

Section C: Census and Census Studies
THE BRITISH CENSUSES, 1841-1911
The Local and Family History Centre has Census records and various indexes for
Blackpool and the Fylde for the Censuses between 1841 and 1901 inclusive. It has no printed
or microform copies of the 1911 Census.
However, because all British Censuses are now widely available online, the details of
Census enumerations and indexes held by the Library and listed in Section C have been
excluded from this version of the Resources List, with the exception of the following:

“A digital library of local & trade directories for England & Wales
published between 1766 and 1919. It contains reproductions of
comparatively rare books, essential tools for research into local and
family history. The collection provides national coverage and also
integrates material from different institutions into a coherent and free
online collection. It is relevant to amateur historians, academics,
teachers and the general public. The website contains at least one
directory for every English & Welsh county for each of the 1850s,
1890s and 1910s.”
TRADE DIRECTORY HOLDINGS
D2.1
Trade Directories
The Library’s collection of historic trade directories covers predominantly Blackpool and the Fylde.
This includes towns and rural settlements as far inland as Garstang, but not Preston or Lancaster. The
area of coverage is similar to that of the Census. Some of the early directories, where indicated in the list
below, cover the whole of pre-1974 Lancashire, that is to say including Manchester and Liverpool.
Care should be exercised in the use of these directories as the layout can be confusing. For example, in
some of the early directories Blackpool is listed under Poulton; settlements such as Bispham and Marton
are sometimes listed under Blackpool and sometimes have their own section separate from Blackpool.
Examine the contents page of each directory carefully, and where the settlement you require is not
mentioned check under the nearest larger town; for example the entries for Elswick appear in the Great
Eccleston section of many directories and there are numerous further examples of such treatment.
Researchers will find the local Barrett directories issued from 1885 particularly helpful, as these include
a full listing by address as well as a listing of trades.

LIST OF HOLIDAY GUIDES
All holiday guides are classified at LE02 and shelved in Bay 16,
except where otherwise indicated. (P) indicates “Pamphlet”: please ask at the Enquiry Desk for these items.
Early accounts of Blackpool (e.g. Hutton, Whittle) were written to explain the resort to intending visitors
and thus may be regarded as early guidebooks. These early guides concentrate on the natural pleasures of
a watering place—fresh air, sea bathing, walks, promenades and good company. It is perfectly possible to
trace the development of a seaside resort through these guides, showing the early fascination with the sea
and demonstrating how, as the twentieth century progresses, the guides concentrate less on the natural
pleasures of the seaside and more on commercial attractions such as entertainment venues, pleasure
palaces and amusements.

Advertisement Index to the Holiday Guides, 1930-.
Elsie Sadek has indexed the Hotel and Boarding House advertisements in the Holiday Guides
between 1930 and 2000. The Index is in three sequences:
1. Names of Proprietors; 2. Names of Establishments, and 3. Addresses.
SECTION E
FAMILYSEARCH.ORG incorporating the
INTERNATIONAL GENEALOGICAL INDEX (IGI)
In its original form, the International Genealogical Index (IGI) was a compilation, mainly of entries from parish records,
published on microfiche by the Family History Department of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (the
Mormons).
The title “IGI” has disappeared, but its contents have been recast and incorporated into familysearch.org. The site now
contains many other related records, and its scope is being extended to include burials.
For a detailed explanation and review of the IGI, see pp. 131-137 of HERBER, Mark, Ancestral trails, shelved at LG1 in
Bay 27 of the Local and Family History Centre.
Please bear in mind that familysearch is not a comprehensive index. Some parish records have not been indexed at all;
those that have been indexed have only been indexed within certain dates, which vary from parish to parish. To find out
which these are, look at Phillimore’s atlas and index of parish registers, (item F1.10 in this List, and shelved at LG11 in
Bay 27 of the Local and Family History Centre).
The microfiche edition.
The Library has the 1991 edition of the IGI for the British Isles on fiche, arranged first by country, then by county, then,
within each county, by surname. Variant forms of the same surname are grouped together.
If you find a record which interests you, whether online or on the fiche, you should always check it against the original
entry in the register, since the IGI is not always accurate. Moreover, it also omits some of the details which may have been
recorded in the register, e.g. addresses and occupations..

F2 BURIALS
F2.1 THE NATIONAL BURIAL INDEX for England and Wales
The Library holds the 3rd edition of this Index on CDRom, published by the Federation
of Family History Societies in 2010. Including the data from the 2 nd edition, it now
contains over 18.4 million burial entries recorded in English and Welsh CofE, Nonconformist, RC, Quaker and ce metery registers between 1538 and 2008. It does not
contain death registrations or Monumental Inscriptions.
The Index includes 431,000 Lancashire entries.
Each entry provides surname, forename(s), date of burial, age (where given), the parish
or cemetery where the event was recorded, whether the data is checked and the family
history society, group or individual who extracted the record.
A Blackpool Library membership card is required to use this Index, which is usable only
on one “standalone” PC. This PC can be reserved in advance.
The Index itself is in drawer 7 of Microfilm Cabinet 2.
F2.2 Deceasedonline.com,
launched in July 2008, is promoting itself as “the central database for UK burials and
cremations”, offering free searches of indexes to the registers by Country, Region,
County, Burial Authority or Crematorium. In most cases, registers begin in or about
1850, and new ones are continually being added.
Researchers have to purchase vouchers to look at the detail of entries.

(NB vol 16, Females S-Z, 1776-1800, and the index volume for 1801-37 are
missing)
“Boyd’s Index” is an index of marriages between 1538 and 1837. Brides and grooms
are indexed separately, and further divided into periods as follows:
Firstly 1538-1600, then in groups of twenty-five years, e.g. 1601-1625 and so on
until 1800, then 1801-37. The 101 Lancashire parishes covered, with the periods
indexed, are listed in the first volume of each sequence. The Index is an important
resource for family history in this area as most Fylde parishes are included. However,
it should be used with care, as there known to be errors and omissions.
It is a good place to begin a search if you are not aware of the date and/or place of a
marriage. The entries comprise name, partner’s name, year (only) and parish. For
another list of parishes and dates indexed in these volumes see item F5.2
Also, be aware that Percival Boyd applied a phonetic system to the arrangement of
surnames, which can create pitfalls; for example, he usually ignored silent letters,
such as the W in Wright, so this name would be filed as if it began with an R. It is
therefore most important to read the Introduction.
In 2015, Boyd’s Index was added to the Findmypast website. The Index covers
4,300 parishes and includes 5,648,000 names. Findmypast is available in the
Family and Local History Centre.

CIVIL REGISTRATION
INTRODUCTION
Since July, 1837, all births, marriages and deaths (bmds) in England and Wales have had to be notified to the
Register Office in the area where the events occurred. In Ireland, the dates were 1864 for births and deaths and
1845 for marriages. In Scotland, such registration became compulsory for all events in 1855. Scottish bmds
are available online at
www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk,
which is a pay-per-view site.
(Since 1 April 2008 the General Register Office has been part of the Identity and Passport Service (IPS), an
Executive Agency of the Home Office.)

INDEXES TO THE BIRTHS, MARRIAGES AND DEATHS IN ENGLAND AND WALES
G2.1 NATIONAL INDEXES.
After registration of bmds was made compulsory, copies of the locally registered entries were sent to the
General Register Office (GRO) in London every three months, where surname indexes were prepared, q uarterly
until 1983 and annually from 1984. The indexes have been issued on microfiche, and the Library has complete
runs of the English and Welsh Indexes of Births, Marriages and Deaths from July, 1837-2004, and of the
Overseas Records (see below) from 1796-1994. These microfiches are filed in Microfilm Cabinet 2.
The national index can be searched online without charge at
www.freebmd.org.uk,
but note that this online index extends only to 1983, and is not yet complete.
111 Localstu/geneabib/Jan16
G2.2 LOCAL INDEXES.
In recent years, many partnerships have been formed between the Registration Service and volunteers from
Family History Societies with the aims of making the local indexes also available online and of including
additional information where possible. The principal website which provides links to such projects is
www.UKBMD.org.uk
Note that these indexing projects are neither complete nor countrywide, so researchers may still have to consult
the fiche edition of the national index. Researchers should also note firstly that the GRO’s referencing system is
not the same as that used by the local registrars, and secondly, that, because they have been compiled at
different times and in different places, there are inconsistencies between the national and local indexes, so that
if an entry cannot be found in one, it will be worth checking the others.
G.2.3 OBTAINING CERTIFICATES
Family historians can use the fiche or online indexes to trace their ancestors’ births, marriages and deaths and
can then use the references obtained to request copies of the original certificates either from the Register Office
in the area where the event took place or from the principal GRO postal depart ment in Southport :
G.R.O., P.O. Box 2, Southport, Merseyside, PR8 2JD
Copies of the application forms can be obtained free of charge from the Local and Family History Centre on the
first floor of Blackpool Central Library.
Where an entry has been traced in the GRO Indexes (and a reference number can therefore be provided) the
cost of a birth, marriage or death certificate from the Southport office is currently £9.25 (cheques are payable to
IPS). The ordering procedure is explained on the website. To avoid confusion it is preferable for researchers to
trace their own references in the indexes before applying for certificates.

WILLS
Introduction. Before 1858 the proving of Wills came within the jurisdiction of the courts of the
Established Church: some of these Wills are searchable online. See Sections H1, H3, H4 and H5
below for more information.
From 12 January 1858 probate became the responsibility of a centralised system of civil probate
registries. For information about probate and how to obtain a copy of a will probated after 1858, see

OTHER INDEXES FOR LANCASHIRE AND ADJACENT AREAS BEFORE 1858
(printed and on fiche)
For the sake of completeness we have listed below the Library’s holdings of Indexes to Wills proved in
Lancashire and adjacent areas before 1858: some are in book form, the remainder are on fiche.
Researchers should of course ignore references in these Indexes to locations such as “Ecclesiastical
Courts”, “Courts of Probate” and “Somerset House”, since most of the Wills are now in local Record
Offices: for the present locations of Wills dated before 1858, please refer to item H1.2 above,
Probate Jurisdictions: where to look for wills.

ELECTORAL REGISTER HOLDINGS
I2.1
The Electoral Registers for England and Wales between 1832 and 1932 have been added to
Findmypast, which is available in the Local & Family History Centre.
I2.2
The Library has Electoral Registers for Lancashire from 1832, mostly on microfilm.
Work is ongoing to list the films and their contents. They are kept in Microfilm Cabinet 1.
For Blackpool, the Library holds a full run of printed Registers from 1921 to date, (with the
exception of the war years 1940-1944, when no Registers were produced). Lytham St. Annes
is included in these registers up to 1949-50, as it was then part of the Blackpool parliamentary
constituency. The registers are arranged in ward and street order and shelved in Bays 4 and
5.
INDEXES & MAPS
A Blackpool Electoral Register Street index has been compiled for each year between 193031 and 1939-40 by Patricia Dimuantes and Martina Macdonald. It shows street names
appearing for the first time, changes of name and changes of Ward. It also marks streets
which have “disappeared”. This is shelved in Bay 4.
For another list of changes, ask at the Enquiry Desk for:
LC62(P) Blackpool street name alterations: miscellaneous items.
Street indexes are available in each volume from the 1960s onwards.
Marion Cavalot has compiled Surname Indexes to two Registers:
The Index to the 1931-32 Register is contained in three blue ring binders and is
complemented by a Street Index in a red binder, which also contains Maps showing the
boundaries of each ward. Both indexes are shelved in Bay 4.
The Index to the 1948-49 Register is contained in four ring binders with green spine labels
and is shelved in Bay 3.
Apart from these years, therefore, searches for particular individuals and families can be very
time-consuming if no address is known.
Researchers should also note that caution is necessary in the use of dates marked on the
Electoral Registers. For example, the Registers for 1957/58 were based on information
collected in 1956. As the Electoral Registers are a record of a forthcoming entitlement to
vote, they can only be regarded as proof of residence on the date on which the
information was collected.

Newspapers
The Library has a thorough run of local newspapers on microfilm. Please ask a member of staff to
reserve the use of a reader-printer machine to view them.
An online source, www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk, jointly hosted by findmypast and the British
Library, is available in the Local and Family History Centre. Local and regional titles between 1710
and 1953, “digitized and fully indexed” are being added regularly.
Although at present none of the following newspapers is online (apart from The Independent), it might
be possible to find the event you are seeking in another Lancashire newspaper, e.g The Preston
Chronicle, some years of which are available on the above site, and take the date from that to search
the Blackpool newspaper.
West Lancashire Evening Gazette
1929 to date
(“West Lancashire” was later dropped from the title to avoid confusion with the Lancashire
County Administrative District of the same name, situated south west of Preston.)

Blackpool Press Cuttings (microfilm)
1900-1952
In the period from the 1890s to the Second World War, the local press often reported local matters in
considerable detail. It is not unusual to find detailed newspaper obituaries of un remarkable local
people, and researchers should not overlook this resource. In the absence of any obituary, a printed
death notice will usually state place of burial or cremation.
For local people who had some prominence in local affairs, please see our s eparate binder of indexed
“Gazette and Herald” articles (under the heading “Biography” followed by the name of the person).
Where more than one local newspaper was in simultaneous publication, do make sure to check all the
available reports.
