Epigraph

"Every parish must have a history, every parish has a register, every person has a parish."

Bishop Stubbs

These all are gone, their little day is o'er,
They laugh, they weep, they sport, they toil no more;
Their feet are still, and others in their room
With busy step are hurrying to the tomb.
We, in our turn, to others shall give place,
And others yet come forth to run the race;
And yet that race by others shall be run
Till time is over and the world is done.

From the Burton Latimer Registers, 1823-24

Dedication

It is a gratification
to inscribe these pages
to my old friend
Robert Meyricke Serjeantson, M.A., F.S.A.
rector of St. Peter's, Northampton
as a small token of my gratitude
for the very considerable assistance
he has so freely rendered
towards their production

First words

It is just have a century since I began, in the year 1860, making extracts from parish registers in West Somerset, where my father was beneficed, a pursuit followed up with some success a few years later in my own county of Derbyshire.

Preface, 1910.

In July 1535, Henry VIII, by virtue of the Act of Supremacy, appointed Thomas Cromwell, who was at that time Lord Privy Seal, to be his Vicar-General.
