Over the past year or more, this PR transcription index has become impossible to maintain in its original form. When begun, the number of transcriptions available was much smaller, and the pace of progress much slower. These pages were never designed to cope with the current rate of change.
In order to keep the index as a useful resource, I am beginning to move it to a database system from which the pages will be generated automatically. The end result should not differ too much in appearance from what you are used to. However, there will be some changes:

• I need to use a standardised list of Somerset parishes. None is completely satisfactory, but I have chosen the Somerset Heritage Centre list to work from. Some churches will appear as chapelries if they are not in that list.
• There will be some rearrangement and rationalisation of parishes grouped into urban areas, including a few Bristol records.
• Inevitably, mistakes will creep in, and error checking a list of this size is challenging! Please let me know about errors you find. If things go too pear-shaped I can always revert to the old files, which will not however be updated from now on. I can only hope to do better than typical software projects
• Hopefully the index will be more complete and up to date.

Update - the task of renewing the PR index has proved to be much more complex and time consuming than I expected. Many thanks for your patience and to those who have sent messages alerting me to problems. The latest update (5th Feb 2014) is a large one and I hope the wait has been worth it. There is still much to do, and I will value any messages about new problems - or even old ones which particularly annoy you.
