  • Names in the First Parish Register from Markfield St Michael's Church, 1571 to 1784
    Names in the first Parish Register from Markfield St Michael’s Church, 1571 to 1784 The purpose of this publication is to allow those with a family history, linked to the village of Markfield, a chance to view the names in the very first Parish Register from St Michael’s Church, which dates from 1571 to 1784. Information has been compiled after scanning through innumerable fiches of the original leather-bound register at the County Record Office at Wigston. This booklet can in no way claim to give accurate information as to when families first came into the village. It is hoped that this compilation will though be as accurate as possible for the written records. An often semi- literate village parson, had to cope with what were then illiterate villagers, whose probably only chance to see their name in written form was in the Parish Church register. Strange accents and the complexities of names such as ‘Cicely Jecombottomly’ or ‘Marah Wainwrite’ made it even more difficult to put pen to paper. The present day scribe was herself briefly flummoxed by the surname ‘†ian’, until it dawned that the name was of course Christian. Many of the entries have suffered the ravages of time and some names have vanished in faded page edges, whilst others suffered events of the time and drowned in ink blodges. There are 354 marriage, 1399 baptism and 1125 burial entries included within the surname charts. Only about twenty names made so little sense that they were omitted, and others have a question mark after them.

It is a powerful tool for shaping the development and growth of a local area. Until the Localism Act in 2011, it was almost impossible for local communities such as ours to have a say in the planning matters that shape the place where we live. The Localism Act gives local communities the opportunity to develop a shared vision for their local area and to shape the development and growth of that area. Neighbourhood Plans are developed from within the community, and provided they achieve necessary legislative milestones, they become “made” and are used by the Local Planning Authority in determining planning applications and making policy. Neighbourhood Plans have to be prepared in accordance with the Local Planning Authority’s adopted Local Development Plan, in our case that of Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council.
