    • Abstract:
      This article provides information on how to find ancestors who were Methodists. Methodism was founded in the 1720s by John Wesley and became a separate nonconformist denomination after his death. The Wesleyan Methodist Metropolitan Registry is a useful source for researching Methodist ancestors, containing over 10,000 records of births and baptisms in England and Wales. Other resources mentioned include TheGenealogist website, Ancestry, and Findmypast. The article also advises that Methodists would have married in the Church of England prior to July 1837 and most would have been buried in parish churchyards. [Extracted from the article]
