My review of a new book from the wonderful John Wintrip: A History of Parish Registers, an excellent addition to the bookshelf whatever your level of expertise.

We love parish registers as they not only give an insight to the people of the parish but also the environment around it - just like this copy of Ware burials from 1692 that says "Earthquake"!
Also, check out in ‘Roger Tayler, a Tayler’ buried in June

Trawling through the OPRs of Westminster I find the following entry on 27 May 1724: 'King, son of John and Anne George'.
Now I want to know what happened to 'King George'. #GenealogyIsFascinating #ParishRegisters
Just made a basic #pedigreechart on #FamilyTreeMaker to accompany these and other early #parishregisters on an upcoming blog post 😊

What's the oldest record on your #familytree? 🔎💕
Mine is the baptism record from Great Packington, Warwickshire in 1538 for the sister of my 11x Great Grandfather, Agnes. She is #6 on the register. Their parents were John & Agnes Judd.

I do love checking the front of parish register books for doodling and graffitti. Sometimes you can even find limericks! #Parishregisters #FamilyHistory
Hey guys. I have just put together a really (almost 7k words 😯) piece on parish registers! I have tried to make it as interesting as possible. I would really love some opinions 🙂

@OnePlaceStudies Can’t be more clearer than that! Get it off your chest love! Rillington #ParishRegisters and #BishopsTranscripts are blooming marvellous. Transcripts completed by the legend that is Pauline Litton as part of the Yorkshire Archaeological & Historical Society #OnePlaceStudy
#OnThisDay Major events occurred in St. Andrew's church #Rillington:
1657 Robert son of Richard Beelby was baptised.
1702 Francis Harrison married Elizabeth Thorp.
1740 Mr. Richard Etherington was buried.
Remembering all those who came before #OnePlaceWednesday #ParishRegisters
The answer is in the 1849 will of Theophilus Dungey, who leaves everything '...to my dear wife Mercy Dungey, to whom I was by mistake married in the name of John Dungey at Chatham...' Some mistake! #ParishRegisters #Genealogy 2/2
You might think this is the marriage of John Dungey to Mercy Brissenden, at Chatham St Mary in 1816, from Medway Archives @findmypast but it isn't. You might be wondering how I know this...1/2 #ParishRegister #Genealogy

@WillsmanOneName You’re in good company! 🤪 Now to layer #parishregisters onto the census? And that’s just for starters! #OnePlaceWednesday
Swiftly leafing through #Rillington #ParishRegisters noting that during the interregnum, parish baptisms, marriages and burials were definitely down. Great to compare population within a defined time frame. What else was going on? Foisted clergy? More rabbit holes. #PaSymp20
Just double checked and note that the marriage did not take place until a year later in a different church. 🤔 not sure what the hold up was. Some #ParishRegisters have such helpful scribbles.
Loving the #music @CBCTempo with the inimitable @JulieNesrallah while I avoid posts re #USElection Enough trouble in #Canada
#Music helps so much while I struggle with beautiful 1500s #parishregisters for next #genealogy #research post.
Another one in year-long #challenge by @AmyJohnsonCrow #52Ancestors - My son-in-law's 4th great-grandfather, Thomas PICKTON 1791-1853, Cheshire England. Lots of #digging in old #parishregisters #terriblehandwriting #fun
