Have you tried the website <> ? Also, I ordered
many church histories from the various locations for my ancestors. Some give
all the names of the Ministers, years of service at the church, names of
wives and family members, etc. Many give congregants names for various
years.

I get the microfiche from my FHC. I found that a suspect ancestor had built
the addition to the 1st Presbyterian Church of Newtownards. I wrote to the
church, enclosing my information, a donation and return-reply coupons. The
church secretary confirmed my information, gave me 11 births and marriages
and connected me to descendants--names and addresses!

And even when I don't find my family, I'm facinated by what is reported in
the various church histories.
