Dorset parish records now on FamilySearch

Dorset parish registers containing baptisms, marriages/banns, and burials for 1538-1910 are added to FamilySearch. There are 332,615 transcription records available, with no image originals. The source given is "from the Dorset History Centre, Dorchester. FHL microfilm, 268 reels, Family History Library Salt Lake City, Utah." It would be helpful if a list of the Dorset parishes from which the information is taken were available.

Ancestry also have a large collection of Dorset parish register records, with images. See previous post here.
