I'm thinking about buying some cd's with births, marriages and deaths for a particular county on them. Would I get all the records for the county for the year range stated or will there still be stuff missing?

I suspect, if they are maybe transcribed by Family History societies, there will still be some missing as they will be collected from various sources and collated. Probably worth buying though if you have several relatives in one area.

Mmm, yes I have two main streams of my tree going back into Hampshire and there are several people I'm having trouble tracing and connecting properly (to my satisfaction). I hoped the CD's would have more information.
They're not too expensive so I think I will buy.
Thanks for replying.
