"Origins" went live online on 6th April 1998 and is a facility which provides searching of (i) the OPR's from 1553 to 1854 for births/baptisms and banns/marriages and (ii) the statutory birth/death/marriage records from 1855 to 1897. In addition. there is an online index to the 1891 census (and, coming later in the year, to the 1881 census). You can access Origins at http://www.origins.net
