    Eccleshall Parish Register, Vol 1 1573-1618

    VOL. I. AND VOL. II., 1573—1618. Vol. I. is the original paper register. It contains the— •Baptisms, 1573—1584 and 1588—1611. Marriages, 1578—1617. Burials, 1573—1581 and 1584—1617. Vol. II. is a fair copy of Vol. T., made on parchment about 1599. It contain!, all the Baptisms, Marriages, and Burials from 1573—1599, including those now missing from Vol. I. Botli those volumes arc well bound, the writing is legible, and they arc in a good state of preservation. The copyist did not follow the spelling of Vol. I. but adopted his own system of spelling both the Christian and surnames. Hence there is scarcely a line which is a verbatim et literatim copy of the original. The present transcriber has not thought it necessary to note the variations in the spelling of the Christian names, nor such minor differences in the surnames as the addition or the omission of an " c," " a," " y " for an " i," or the doubling of a consonant, but every important variation in a surname has been carefully noted in italic type between parentheses. VOL. 111., 1620—1667. This volume is also well bound and legible. Several of the entries are partially mutilated owing to the bottom corner of several of the loaves having been torn off. There arc no entries between 22 May, 1625, and 29 March, 1627, but with this exception the register appears to have been most carefully kept, even during the Commonwealth period. On pages 99 to 106 are several marriage entries for the years 1653 to 1656, many of which appear to have no connection with Ecclcshall, as couples seem to have come here from the neighbouring towns and villages to get their banns published.

  • Fulford Chapel and St

    Fulford Chapel and St

    THE HISTORY OF FULFORD CHAPEL AND ST. NICHOLAS CHURCH The old yews in St.Nicholas churchyard on the high ground at the north end of Fulford point to the church being a very early place of worship, and it was certainly well established as a Chapelry in the 14th century, being listed among the Churches of Pirehill Hundred in the Parish of St.Michael’s Church in Stone, together with Darlaston, Meaford, Oulton, Moddershall, Tittensor, Beech, Hilderstone and Aston. It was visited by the commissioners of Henry VI in connection with the inventory of Church ornaments soon after the introduction of the second prayer book of that reign (1422-1461). They found one chalice of silver without paten, one bell in the steeple, one cloth for the altar, and a surplice for the Curate. ‘Beresford's Historical Notes’ states that " the chapel is said to have been in existence before 1552 and was dedicated to St.Nicholas”, the school being held in the north aisle until a school was built in 1785 ”. A local squire, Mr.Shalcross, gave the money for the building of the north aisle which was named after him in 1649. From the painting that William Walsh did of the old Chapel in 1814 it would appear that the Chapel was built in about the 13 th century and that it was built using Keuper ‘white’ sandstone that had been quarried behind Fulford Manor Farm for centuries. It measured approximately 14 metres by 10 metres and is shown as being of mixed architectural styles, with the east window being Early English and the two tiny side windows appearing to be Norman.
