Intriguing new records from both sides of the Atlantic

An eclectic mix of family records has arrived on the site this Findmypast Friday, along with the oldest newspaper in our collection. Here are all the details on what’s new.

Warwickshire Burials

Pinpoint your Warwickshire relatives’ final resting places with over 140,000 additional records from three cemeteries. These poignant records can reveal essential details for your family tree including:

• Your ancestors' names
• Their birth, death and burial years
• Their parents’ names
• Where they were buried
• Where they lived

Records from the following cemeteries have been added in this update:

• Coventry, London Road Cemetery, 1916-2007
• Coventry, St Paul's Cemetery, 1893-1994
• Walsgrave on Sowe Cemetery, 1893-1994

Warwickshire, Coventry Pawnbroker Tickets 1915-1923

These unique mementoes from the First World War era reveal what the people of Coventry pawned and the money they made. As well as giving us an insight into the area's social history, the records can also be useful for adding colour to your Coventry family's past. They include details like:

• Who pawned an item
• Their address
• What they pawned
• How much they received

Covering transactions made at Wm. Brookes at 1-2 Silver Street and 118 Gosford Street and Philips Electric Arc Welding Ltd, the tickets were transcribed and provided by Coventry Family History Society.

United States, Idaho, Reconstructed 1890 Idaho Census

The 1890 US Census was destroyed by fire. This substitute index can help plug the gaps for the state of Idaho. Created by volunteers and staff from Idaho State Archives, the records can reveal important family details like names, dates and locations.

Consisting of federal, state and local government records, the collection pinpoints as many Idaho residents as possible between 1885 to 1894. It can be a real lifesaver if you're trying to trace Idaho relatives in the late 19th century.
