This page brings together sites that are related one way or another to the Vicar-General Marriage Licence Index. Many of them will have been mentioned already somewhere on the site but a few are not. It was felt that it would be convenient to bring them all together here and provide some short explanations about them. If you know of other sites which you think could usefully be included here please send an email to David Squire.
