About this Collection:
Records are typically arranged in chronological order and contain the following information:
Parish
County
Name of child
Baptism, birth, or churching date
Mother's name
Father's name
Additional details such the child's gender, residence, and whether legitimate may also be available on the original record.
In addition to birth and baptismal records, churching records have also been included in this data collection. Churching is a rite or ceremony in which a woman recovering from childbirth is brought to the church to recieve blessings and prayers. This ceremony was not always formally recorded, but when it was, it was often recorded on baptismal registers.
Specific source citations, including call and microfilm numbers, are provided on the record level for each entry.
Parish Records:
Parish records--primarily baptisms, marriages, and burials--are the best source of vital record information before the nineteenth century. Before Civil Registration began in 1837, key events in a person's life were typically recorded by the Church rather than the State. Starting in the sixteenth century, parish records are some of the longest running records available.
In 1812, George Rose's Act called for pre-printed registers to be used for separate baptism, marriage, and burial registers as a way of standardizing records. These standardized registers are the records included in this collection. For earlier registers, please see the link provided below in the Related Data Collections section.
Poor Law Records:
In 1834 the Poor Law Amendment Act was enacted. This law formed parishes into groups called Unions. Each Union elected a Board of Guardians, which was then responsible for the care of the poor, rather than the individual parishes.
Individuals who received relief generally included the elderly, orphaned, unemployed, or sick and afflicted. In addition to monetary relief, other daily necessities such as food, clothing, and work were provided. Children could be appointed to apprenticeships or placed in schools and other institutions.
Poor law workhouses and infirmaries kept lots of records, among them registers of births and baptisms. In many London and Middlesex poor law unions or parishes the maternity ward was in the workhouse rather than in the workhouse infirmary. The registers recorded information about the births and baptisms that occurred at these institutions.
