DERBYSHIRE RECORD OFFICE NONCONFORMIST REGISTER LIST

INTRODUCTION

WHO ARE NONCONFORMISTS?

Nonconformists is the general term used for members of religious groups other than the Church of . Dissenters is another description, because such people disagreed with the Anglican church, the established or national religion in England since the time of Henry VIII.

WHICH NONCONFORMIST CHURCHES HAVE RECORDS IN DERBYSHIRE RECORD OFFICE?

Many difference denominations are represented in the archives in Derbyshire Record Office. Churches include Society of Friends (also known as Quakers), lndependent, Presbyterian, Congregational, Unitarian, Moravian, Swedenborgian, Roman Catholic, Baptist and the many branches of Methodism, including Wesleyan Methodist, Lady Huntingdon’s Connexion, Wesleyan Reform, Primitive Methodist, Free Methodist and United Methodist.

Nonconformity has been a feature of Derbyshire religious life since the seventeenth century onwards and records exist from this time, but the majority of registers date from the early nineteenth century. The name of William Bagshawe, the Apostle of the Peak, is one of the best-known in Derbyshire nonconformist history. Born in Litton, he was ejected as a Puritan from the living of in 1662 and travelled preaching in the Peak District for the remainder of his life. Further south in the county, Ockbrook was the site in 1740 of one of the earliest Moravian centres outside London. Roman Catholic communities survived in the High Peak and North East Chesterfield areas throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Primitive Methodism developed from the camp meetings established by Hugh Bourne at Mow Cop in North Staffordshire and in less than seven years its impact in Derbyshire was such that by 1816 had become the denomination’s second circuit in the country. Joseph Strutt, a prominent Unitarian, became the first nonconformist mayor of Derby in 1835 after the repeal of the Test and Corporations Acts. ln the later nineteenth century, Thomas Cook, of travel business fame, was a very substantial benefactor to the General Baptists in his native Melbourne.

HOW MANY NONCONFORMIST CHAPELS WERE THERE IN DERBYSHIRE?

At their peak in the mid to late nineteenth century, there were hundreds of nonconformist churches and chapels in the county. ln urban areas, you might find four or five different nonconformist chapels within a stone’s throw of one another -

Wesleyan Methodist, Primitive Methodist, Congregational, and Baptist would be representative examples.

Not all had specific names like ‘Bethel’ or ‘Ebenezer’ chapels. Many were known by the place where they were - Derby Road Church, for example - or just as ‘the Wesleyan chapel’ in a particular village. Often they can only be definitely identified by denomination and this may change over time as various groups formed and re- formed. Summary details of such changes are given in the Key to Denominations.

WHAT IS A CIRCUIT?

ln the Methodist church, individual chapels are organised in groups in a circuit. ln earlier times, ministers were appointed to a circuit, not just to one chapel. There is one main church in each circuit. Most have some geographical cohesion, but their constituent churches have varied considerably over the years. Rural circuits may cover a very wide area and may straddle administrative county boundaries. This is why some Derbyshire nonconformist registers may have been deposited in out- county repositories. To find where these are, please see Appendix 2 to this list. Urban circuits proliferated as the population grew in the later nineteenth century: many have now amalgamated following the union of the Wesleyan Methodist, the Primitive Methodists and the United Methodist Church in 1932. New circuits may have the same name as their predecessors.

WHAT DO NONCONFORMIST REGISTERS INCLUDE? ln many instances, nonconformist registers complement Church of England parish registers. Dissenting ministers might keep records of baptisms, marriages, and - less frequently - deaths or burials. Before the introduction of civil registration in 1837, these could be informal lists and notes, rather than highly-structured or detailed information. For baptisms, the names of the child and his/her parents are usually given, sometimes with comments on the father’s occupation. Godparents are commonly given in Roman Catholic registers.

Before 1837, virtually all nonconformists except Quakers and Jews were married in the Church of England because ceremonies of other denominations were not legally valid. After 1837, marriages could only be conducted by authorised persons and, in particular, following the Marriage Act 1898, increasing numbers of nonconformist ministers chose to apply both to perform and to register weddings in their own churches and chapels. This is why many surviving nonconformist marriage registers begin around the turn of the twentieth century.

Some denominations do not believe in infant baptism and so their baptism registers will relate to adults, not newly-born children: the Baptists are one such group. ln such instances, births of church members may be noted separately.

Burial is not a sacrament and therefore for some religious denominations it was more appropriate to record deaths: this was usual Roman Catholic practice in the past, for example. The closure of urban church and chapel burial grounds in the mid- nineteenth century and their replacement by municipal cemeteries may be the reason why there are no late nineteenth or twentieth century registers for churches and chapels in such locations. Many cemetery records are available in microform in Derbyshire Record Office. These are noted in Appendix 1 to this list. Other civil (as opposed to church and chapel) registers, for example, those from workhouses or hospitals, now in Derbyshire Record Office are also included in Appendix 1.

WHY ARE NONCONFORMIST REGISTERS NOT CONTINUOUS? ln addition to the reasons given above, there may well be gaps in nonconformist registers, especially early ones. Before the Toleration Act of 1689, many generations of dissenters suffered persecution for their religious beliefs. Because of this, services and ceremonies took place privately - if not secretly - and records may be scarce. ln these circumstances, ministers and priests were often peripatetic, moving around the county and even the region, and making entries in their registers and records for different places.

DO I NEED TO LOOK AT RECORDS OTHER THAN REGISTERS?

One writer has said “Nonconformist registers should always be used in conjunction with church rolls and other records of the individual chapel or circuit”. This is good advice. Chapel and, in the case of Methodists, circuit records often include much information of use to the family and local historian. Because congregations were smaller than those in Church of England parishes, it was possible for ministers to have a detailed knowledge of their adherents. Not only occupations and addresses, but also life histories may be noted in some church books. Particularly where a church member returned to active practice after a lapse of time, personal details may be included.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN CHAPELS CLOSE?

The twentieth century has seen a decline in many nonconformist congregations. This has led to the amalgamation of some churches and the closure of redundant buildings. One of the most major recent changes took place in 1972 when many formerly Congregational or Presbyterian or lndependent congregations came together to form the United Reformed Church. Because there is no statutory protection for Nonconformist registers as there is for their Church of England equivalents, survival may be more haphazard. Derbyshire Record Office undertakes survey and fieldwork programmes throughout Derbyshire to identify nonconformist registers no longer in use and to encourage their deposit here for safekeeping and research. Archives are accepted from all denominations. The records are kept in secure, environmentally-monitored conditions which meet national standards and are made available to researchers during normal office hours under invigilation in the Office’s public Search Room.

lf you know of registers or other records from nonconformist churches or chapels in the county, Derbyshire Record Office would be pleased to receive information about them. They are a very important part of our archival heritage. Please contact:

INTRODUCTION TO DENOMINATIONS

After the Toleration Act, 1689, and during the eighteenth century, relations between Presbyterian, lndependent and even Baptist congregations were very fluid and the distinctions between them were not at all clear. The picture is further confused by the growth of Unitarianism amongst all three groups, but particularly the Presbyterians. Denominational labels only became relatively fixed after the establishment of:

Χ the Unitarian Association in 1825 Χ the Congregational Union, taking the chapels formerly called lndependent, in 1831 Χ the Presbyterian Church of England in 1836

The Baptist Union was formed in 1891, although there were earlier voluntary groupings of General and Particular Baptists.

Thus more than one denominational label may be ascribed to a single chapel. This is particularly true of the various groupings of Methodists before 1932. For instance, the Wesleyan Reform movement after 1849 was particularly strong in Derbyshire, but some chapels did not use the description Reform because they considered it inaccurate. They continued to call themselves Wesleyan Methodists, although not members of the Wesleyan Methodist Connexion or Conference.

KEY TO ABBREVIATIONS FOR DENOMINATIONS

C Congregational Church (founded 1831). lndividual churches belonged to Congregational Union until 1966; major part joined United Reformed Church in 1972; minority remained separate and known as the Congregational Federation.

GB General Baptist. Most Derbyshire churches formed part of the New Connexion of General Baptists founded in 1770.

I Independent. Some early lndependent congregations were later known as Congregationalists.

LH Countess of Huntingdon’s Connexion (founded 1779). Originally followers of George Whitfield who separated from John Wesley after 1751 because of Whitfield’s Calvinist views.

MF United Methodist Free Churches. Formed in 1857 from the amalgamation of the Wesleyan Methodist Association which had seceded in 1836 and the greater part of the Wesleyan Methodist Reformers, who had seceded or been expelled in 1849. Most Wesleyan Reform churches in Derbyshire (except those in the circuit) joined this denomination during the 1860s. lt became part of the United Methodist Church in 1907.

Moravian Established in London by German missionaries in 1738. A centre was founded at Ockbrook in 1740. Also known as United Brethren.

NC Methodist New Connexion. Separated from Wesleyan Methodists in 1797; became part of United Methodist Church in 1907.

P Presbyterian. A term used before formation of Presbyterian Church of England in 1836.

PE Presbyterian Church of England (founded 1836), united with most of Congregational Church to form United Reformed Church in 1972

PM Primitive Methodist. Founded 1811-1812 by Hugh Bourne with his associate William Clowes. Spread from North Staffordshire into Derby where a circuit was formed in 1816.

RC Roman Catholic. Hierarchy re-established 1850; parish organisation not fixed until 20th century.

Society of Friends Founded by George Fox (1624-1691). Known as Quakers. Organised in Yearly, Quarterly, Monthly and Preparative Meetings. From 19th century. Quarterly Meetings covered a region or large geographical area.

Swedenborgian Followers of Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772). First congregation met in London in 1788. Also known as New Jerusalem Church and now as New Church

UM United Methodist Church. Formed 1907 from the union of the Methodist New Connexion and United Methodist Free Churches and the Bible Christian Church.

Unitarian Congregations with Unitarian (as opposed to Trinitarian) beliefs existed from the 17th century, but the denomination became more commonly used by formerly Presbyterian and lndependent chapels from the early 18th century. Its organisation was not formalised until 1825 when the Unitarian Association began.

WM Wesleyan Methodist Connexion. Established from 1740 by John and Charles Wesley and, at first, George Whitfield. Many groups later broke away from the Wesleyan Methodist Connexion on doctrinal grounds. For example, the Derby Faith Methodists (also known as Arminian Methodists) seceded in the early 1830s and joined with other sects to form the Wesleyan Methodist Association in 1836.

WMA The Wesleyan Methodist Association, founded 1836 by the Protestant Methodists, the Warrenites, and the Derby Faith Methodists (Arminian

Methodists), became part of the United Methodist Free Churches in 1857 and subsequently the United Methodist Church in 1907.

WR Wesleyan Reform Union. Founded 1859. Followed schism resulting from expulsion by Wesleyan Methodist Conference of three ministers, including the Superintendent of Ripley circuit, in 1849. Wesleyan Reform chapels in the Bakewell circuit joined WRU at its inception.

HOW TO USE THIS LIST

1. First check the place in which you are interested Remember Methodist circuits may cover places at some distance from the main church. Use the map to check locations

2. Check covering dates of registers listed, both original and in microform Remember there may well be gaps, especially in early registers. Use the key to abbreviations to identify types of entry, e.g. bp means baptisms, bi means births.

3. Note the denomination This is given after the church, chapel or circuit name, e.g. WM means Wesleyan Methodist. See the key to denominations for identification.

4. Note the reference number/numbers You will need these to consult original registers, microforms or transcripts because archives are arranged by accession number, not by place or type of record. Numbers in this list refer to groups of records, not to single registers. Copy monumental inscriptions (also abbreviated to MIs) may be available for certain chapel burial grounds. These are on open shelves in the Record Office Search Room.

WHEN YOU COME TO DERBYSHIRE RECORD OFFICE

5. Use Derbyshire Record Office Search Room finding aids (i.e. lists and indexes) to identify reference numbers for particular registers These are reference guides arranged by place. They give you the specific reference number for each microform or original register. lf you find a number with the prefix M (e.g. M2) this means that the register is a microfilm. Note the number and when you come to the Record Office you can book a microform reader and use any of the microforms while the Search Room is open. lf you find a number with the prefix D (e.g. D2530/1/1), this means that it is an original (i.e. manuscript) register. To consult it, you need to fill out a document request slip so that it can be brought from the strong rooms for you. ltems from strong rooms are produced in the Search Room at regular times throughout the day. For further information please see the Record Office leaflet How to Order Your Documents or ask Search Room staff (tel: 01629 580000 ext. 35207).
