How to remove yourself from freereg.org.uk
What they publish
Volunteer-transcribed UK parish and non-conformist register data — baptism, marriage, and burial records, historically sourced (mostly pre-20th-century). Not a commercial people-search broker; a nonprofit historical-records transcription project.
Removing yourself, step by step
0 of 3 done- Locate the specific transcribed record (parish, year, entry) on freereg.org.uk.
- Contact the relevant county's "Corrections Coordinator" (listed per-county on the site) to request a correction or, in rare cases involving a living person mistakenly included, removal.
- Explain the specific privacy concern; note that FreeREG's stated process is oriented toward transcription accuracy, not privacy takedowns, so expect limited flexibility for genuinely historical entries.
