PRIVATELY PRINTED FOR THE YORKSHIRE PARISH REGISTER SOCIETY T902. W. H. MILNES, PRINTER, WAKEFIELD. 1325191 f^ PREFACE. \ The First Volume, containing Baptisms, Marriages, and Burials, consists of three parchment volumes of unequal size bound together. first has entries from The 1598 to 1629, 7^ by 13^ inches ; the second, from 1630 to 1652, 9 by 13^ inches; the third, 1652 to 1724, 6^ by 15 inches. It has been badly bound, the leaves not being in consecutive order. In addition the entries in the third part are very ^ mixed up, so it has been considered the best plan to place them all in their proper yearly order. The edges of many of the leaves are much frayed, which makes the deciphering sometimes difficult. The Second Volume, also parchment, contains the Baptisms and Burials, 1725 to 1778, and the Marriages, 1725 to 1753. The Third Volume is solely Marriages, 1754 to August, 1779, and is paper with the modern printed forms. The thanks of the Society are due to the Vicar (the Rev. H. W, Ward, M.A.) for allowing the Register to be printed and also for the kind way he has assisted the Editor. J. W.
