One hundred and fifty printed Derbyshire Parish Registers. Edited by W. P. W. PHILLIMORE, M.A., B.C.L. AND R. JOWETT BURTON, M.A. (Rector of Hughley, Salop.) VOL. I. /I M^i/^ ILon&on: Issued to the Subscribers by Phillimore & Co., 124, Chancery Lane. 1906. PREFACE. This Volume, forming the first, it may be hoped, of a series containing the whole of all extant Derbyshire Registers down to the year 1812, includes the Marriage Registers of thirteen parishes. The need there is to preserve the contents of our ancient Registers from the risks of fire, theft, forgery, and natural decay is well illustrated by this volume. The Registers should commence in 1538, the date when they were established at the instance of Thomas Cromwell, yet it will be seen three only commence earlier than the seventeenth century. i37^9089 The Editors propose to continue this series of Derbyshire Registers in volumes similar to this. They will be very glad to receive offers of assistance, since it is only by volunteer help that it is possible to print our ancient parish registers. Genealogists, not only in Derbyshire but throughout the English world, will appreciate this systematic attempt to .render available the information contained in parish registers, which to most students are at present almost sealed books. These printed copies will preserve the information they contain, even though the originals be lost by carelessness, theft or fire.
