The Catholic Family History Society is delighted to announce the completion of the ‘Index of Nuns’ project which has been running for some years now. The index is now available to buy on CD from Genfair

This CD provides records of approximately 14,000 nuns who professed later than 1795. For each nun in the index the following facts may be available: surname and forename, her order or community, birth date and place, religious name, family place, names of her father and mother, dates and place of entry, profession, leaving, and death. The amount of information given varies and it is rare to find that all of these details are available for an individual.cat-d-015
