The following resources may be useful when developing articles:


 * Oxford Dictionary of National Biography — http://www.oxforddnb.co.uk
 * This is a subscription resource, however, UK library members will probably find they can gain access via their library's subscription, check your council's library webpages for details
 * The Clergy of the Church of England database — http://www.theclergydatabase.org.uk
 * The result of a project run by King's College London, with various partners, to list all Church of England clergy from 1540–1835 (at this period this also includes what is now the Church in Wales). Not all dioceses have yet been completed.  The site also contains diocesan histories, and other general reference material.
 * Crockford's clerical directory — http://www.crockford.org.uk/
 * Listing of UK Anglican clergy, requires subscription for the current directory. Project member User:David Underdown can also access certain old editions (1858, 1868, 1874, 1885 and 1908).
 * Lambeth Palace library — http://www.lambethpalacelibrary.org/
 * The library can also check old copies of Crockford's, and has certain other resources available and will respond to specific enquiries.
 * British History Online: Ecclesiastical & religious — http://british-history.ac.uk/subject.aspx?subject=2
 * London Gazette, official notice of appointment of CofE bishops (both dicoesan and suffragan) (from approx 1665 on, including Wlesh clergy to the disestablishment of the Church in Wales) can usually be found using the Gazette's search facility. Details of appointments to other livings etc in the gift of the Crown are also published there, as well as British honours and appointments to the Royal Household (e.g. clergy attached to the Chapel Royal, those appointed Honorary chaplain to the monarch and so on).  Template LondonGazette can be used to provide consistent formatting of references to this resource, and to ease future maintenance of these references.
 * Cable Clerical Index of clergy who served in the Anglican Church of Australia 1788 - 1961
