The NBI3 is available for research at the Palgrave Research Centre.
The NBI3 is a database of entries recorded in English and Welsh burials registers - parish, nonconformist, Roman Catholic, Quaker and cemetery.
Coverage is incomplete, but over 18.4 million records are included in this edition, covering 1538-2008. The NBI3 also incorporates those records previously published of which many have since been checked and corrected. Millions of these records will not be found on any website.
Information for each individual includes:
- Forename(s) and surname
- date of burial
- age (where given, generally post-1813)
- details of place where the event was recorded; pre-1832 county definitions are used
- the recording society, group or individual
No monumental inscriptions or death registrations are included.
