I just checked the parish records for Huntingdonshire to see that eight parishes had updates on 19 July, which I've listed below. I'm interested to check out a couple of those parishes, to see if the new records can fill any gaps I've got.

| Alwalton | St Andrew | 1576-1672, 1697-1811, 1813-1877 | 1577-1681, 1698-1812 | 1577-1673, 1697-1812 |

Wouldn't it be magical if every parish was available immediately! Unfortunately there are millions of records and FreeREG relies on the hard work of volunteers - and don't have unlimited access to the records themselves or it'd certainly be easier/quicker to achieve that.
Of course, there are other ways to get the parish records, but FreeREG is a great free resource for family history records and parish registers.
