THE ^artsl) Registers OF &L jftlarp atoermarp, LONDON, CONTAINING THE Carriages, baptisms, an* burials PROM 1558 TO 1754. EDITED BY JOSEPH LEMUEL CHESTER, LL.D., EDITOR OF THE WESTMINSTER ABBEY REGISTERS, ETC. LONDON 1880, PREFACE. The Registers of St. Mary Alderniary are happily in a good state of preservation, and their contents are of the character usual with those of the old London parishes. Perhaps the most notable entry in them is that of the marriage of the poet Milton, 24 February, 1662-3, but a very large portion of them relate to the families of merchants and professional men who bore a more or less conspicuous part in the history of the City and of their times. It appears to have been the custom to make yearly lists of the inhabit- ants of the parish, with additional particulars as to their occupation, Eeligious faith, and the numbers of their respective families. Two of these lists, for the years 1733 and 1734, were transcribed into the Parish Register, and it has been thought best to reproduce them in this volume, on account of their value as illustrating the Register itself, and as furnish- ing details which do not appear elsewhere. They will be found on pages 235-238. On pages 231-234 will also be found three of the formal Renunciations of the Romish faith common to the period, which were also transcribed into the Register. Considerable space has been saved in this reprint by adopting uniformly the initial letters " s " and " d " to indicate " son " and " daughter," and the repetition of the formulas " were married," or " baptized," or " buried," has also been avoided with a similar result. The transcript of the Registers, as heretofore, has been made by Mr. J. Eedes, with his well-known carefulness. 163690 yi PREFACE. The best thanks of the Society are due to the Reverend Lewis Borrett White, Rector, and to the Churchwardens of the parish, for their per- mission to print the Registers, and for the facilities they kindly afforded for their transcription. The present volume will be followed, during the ensuing year, by the Registers of the Parish of St. Thomas Apostle, united with St. Mary Aldermary since 1666, when they will be found to illustrate each other to a considerable extent.
