'J"H E Council has the pleasure of placing in the hands ol Members the fifth instalment of Staffordshire Parish Registers for the present year consisting of portions of the following : — Parish. Deanery. StaffordshireAlstonfield (Part IV.) Alstonfield. M ilwich R ugeley Hamstall Ridware Stafford

It is intended that the Parishes of each Deanery shall be bound up together Every Register will, however, be separately paginated so that Members may adopt any other more convenient method of arrangement.

The present issue is in respect of the Subscriptions for 1904. A further instalment of Registers will be issued in December.

Subscriptions for 1904 should now be forwarded to the Treasurer of Sample the StaffordshireCounty Parish Register Society, Lloyds Bank Stafford. . 1 ' c Indexing.—The Council will be very pleased to receive offers of help in indexing the various Registers. The work is not difficult and can be completed in leisure time. Offers of help may be sent to the Editor. Assistance in this way will enable us to issue a larger amount of Registers Studies than would be otherwise possible, as the expense of indexing is always considerable.

Transcription.—The work of the Society would be very greatly hastened if a few Members would undertake to transcribe the Registers in their respective districts. Those who have had no experience of antient handwriting might undertake to do the modern period, i.e., from 1754 to 18 12 .

A pamphlet containing full instructions, together with some specimen alphabets of old register handwriting, has been prepared which Mr. Phillimore will send to any Member who proposes to help in the work of transcription.

Binding.—Cases for binding the Registers in Deaneries will be supplied on the completion of each. The price will be is. 6d. each nett., by post is. 9d. 1376111
