The main method of using the database is to search the Master Index which contains an entry for each reference to a person in each source. There are now 86,500 entries in the master index. Searches can be for partial names and specific ranges of dates.  The result of a search of the master index is a list of possible references which match the search criteria.  From this list, the information transcribed from any one source can be accessed.  To begin a search click Person Search.

An alternative method of searching is to select a building from a maps and obtain a list of persons associated with the building.  To begin a search click Property-based Search.

Separate pages are available which list names mentioned in the master index.  The main purpose of these pages is to make all names available to search engines (which cannot access the database directly).  To access these web pages click on List of Names.

 
Buckinghamshire Family History Society has provided data on Hanslope born people who appear in records from other parts of the county or, in some cases, further afield.  The data so far included in the database is for the 1851 census and for marriages recorded elsewhere in Bucks.

Sundry information from other sources has also been added. To date this includes the following.

1784 Election Freeholders who voted
1798 Posse Comitatus Survey of all men between 15 and 60
1831 Election Freeholders who voted
1844 Canada People desirous of emigrating
various Directories Registers of tradespeople

Recently, a few links have been added to information extracted from property deeds, and to persons mentioned on other pages of the Hanslope web site, such as tenants mentioned in the pages on the land owned by the City of Lincoln. Entries have been copied from Kelly's trade directories of the 19th century. In August 2010, records were added of persons licenced to run public houses from the records of the Justices of the Peace Quarter Sessions for the period 1757 to 1828.

Information from censuses and chuch records is now available in separate databases for some neighbouring villages. For further information click on the following.

Where Hanslope records indicate that a person was born or was resident in these villages, a link is provided to search the database of the other village .

(Earlier versions of this page contained links to a Castlethorpe database. Those developing a heritage web site for Castlethorpe have decided to build the web pages without the use of a database, so the database started for Castlethorpe has been removed.  For information from censuses, church records, will, etc. click on Castlethorpe.)
