DERBYSHIRE PARISH REGISTERS Marriages. II. phillimore’s parish register series vol. lxxiv. (derbyshire vol. ii) One hundred and fifty only printed Derbyshire Parish Registers. Marriages. Edited by w. p. w. phillimore, m.a., b.c.l., and hon. f. strutt. VOL. II. London: Issued To The Subscribers By Phillimore & Co., 124, Chancery Lane. 1907. PREFACE. A second volume of the Marriage Registers of Derbyshire is now placed in the hands of the subscribers. Unlike the first volume which contained no less than thirteen Registers this one includes only Brailsford and a portion of Duffield Register. The latter parish extends over a very large area of country, including many hamlets, most of which are now independent parishes. Consequently, the entries in this register are extremely numerous and it was found impossibie to include them all in one volume without increasing its size to a larger number of pages than the number of sub- scribers would justify us in doing. Volume III, which is in the printer’s hands, will contain the remainder of Duffield weddings down to 1812 besides other registers. Subscribers will be glad to know that the registers of the county town are now being transcribed and it is anticipated that a start will be made in printing them in an early volume of this series. It has not been thought needful to print the entries verbatim. They are reduced to a common form and the following contractions have been freely used :— w. = widower or widow p.= of the parish of s.= spinster, single woman. or son. co.= in the county of b.= bachelor or single man. dioc.= in the diocese of. d. = daughter. lic. = marriage licence. These extracts have been made by Mr. Strutt in the case of Duffield. Thanks are also due to the parish clergy for permission to print these extracts. vi It may be well to remind the reader that these printed abstracts of the registers are not legal “¨evidence”. For certificates application must be made to the local clergy. The Editors will gladly welcome help in the work of transcribing the registers. It is only by volunteer assistance that it becomes feasible to issue this series of parish registers. W.P.W.P. F.S. 124, Chancery Lane. June, 1907. Contents. Parish. Years. Page.

Note.–The village of Brailsford is situate on the high road between Derby and Ashburne, and is about half way between those two places. The Church stands alone in a field to the left of and about half a mile from the village. This isolated position is said to be owing to the fact it was originally erected for the joint use of two manors, the manor of Brailsford and the manor of Ednaston. The Church is still used by the village or hamlet of Ednaston, which is about a mile distant from Brailsford, as well as by the village of Brailsford. The earlier Registers have been lost. Of those now existing, Volume I consists of parchment leaves, measuring 141⁄2 ins. by 7 ins. It is bound in parchment, and the Marriages are mixed with the Baptisms and Burials. It extends over the period 1651 to 1695.Itis in fair condition, though some pages are torn. Volume II, from 1706 to 1753-4, is also of parchment and parch- ment bound. It measures 18 ins. by 7 ins. Volume III, 1754 to 1807, measures 15 ins. by 9 ins. Volume IV, 1808 to 1811, measures 15 ins, by 101⁄2 ins. Both are the usual volumes of printed forms. The Marriages have been extracted by the Hon. Frederick Strutt, and are now printed under his supervision by leave of the Rev. C. H. Fairfax, Rector of Brailsford. Volume I.
