This page lists all the wiki articles describing online FamilySearch record collections from England.

Record Collections by Type
To learn more about any particular type of record available for research in England, select the appropriate link in the sidebar to the right. This leads to a dedicated article describing the history, significance, and general availability of that particular type of record in England.

Record Collections by Location

Most of the localities are historic counties, though some of the larger English cities are also listed.
