Excerpt from How to Write the History of a Parish: An Outline Guide to Topographical, Records, Manuscripts, and Books Those Who have been engaged in any literary work are well aware how large a portion of time is often spent in merely learning the titles and somewhat of the contents of those books that treat of the different branches of the subject selected. Various books connected with parochial history, especially those that have been proved by experience to be the best handbooks, are therefore mentioned in these pages to facilitate reference. Space only has prevented me from considerably adding both to their number and description, but any further knowledge that I may have gleaned on topographical literature is heartily at the disposal of any worker who may privately apply to me.

Excerpt from Logie, Vol. 1: A Parish History The idea of writing a History of the Parish was taken Up many years ago by the late Mr. William Troup, f.s.a. Session Clerk of Logie, and for some years interim-clerk to the Presbytery of Dunblane. He made extensive extracts from the Registers of the Presbyteries of Stirling and Dunblane, as well as from the Parish Records themselves. These are very voluminous, and have been of much service, although a great deal of the matter could not be utilised. This work of transcribing these old Registers was both slow and difficult, and only an ardent antiquary could have had the patience to undertake the task.

Excerpt from Our Parish Registers: Being Three Hundred Years of Curious Local History, as Collected From the Original Registers, Churchwardens' Accounts, and Monumental Records of the Parish of Walkham Holy Cross The Parish Registers, which are now in safe custody in the Abbey Church, are the chief authentic source of much that is interesting in the history of Waltham Abbey. These Registers may eventually be taken from the parish and placed in some public depository, such as Somerset House, which will render them less accessible than they are to-day, and which will enhance the value of any printed extracts of them.

Excerpt from History of Oxford, Vol. 1: Church Records, Births, Marriages, Deaths, Etc Two or three memories may sometimes reach back a hundred and fifty or two hundred years, but the aged sires and matrons whose fathers told them what their grandsires saw and did a century and a half ago are fast passing away. Even the old records, brown and brittle with age, are crumbling and disappearing. Three of the closely written leaves of the oldest volume of Oxford records, which evidently gave the earliest vital statistics of the parish, are gone, while others are so worn as not to be fully decipherable. Old documents are destroyed by accident or scattered far and wide by the migration of families. In view of this, and to bring these matters into convenient form for reference and preservation, the following pages have been compiled. The original parish records are in two volumes, one of which was kept by the pastor and contained a record of such matters as came under his direction, and the other by the clerk of the society, containing a record of the society meetings and of such business as the laws of the colony reserved to laymen.

Excerpt from An Inventory of the Parish Registers and Other Records: In the Diocese of Canterbury With an Introduction and Appendix It may be assumed that the number of those who take an interest in parish records or registers is extremely limited, perhaps most people are altogether unaware even of the existence of such documents. In publishing this volume there is no expectation of rendering these statistics popular. Our primary purpose is to ascertain what we possess and thus to widen the field in which the student of parochial history may delve. The late Archbishop Benson once in an inofficial manner was driving through an area of open country, where archaeological interest centered in the ruins of an ancient Religious house in the vicinity of which remained a cluster of parish churches. Dr. Benson possessed an almost unequalled knowledge of Church Architecture: - Doors, windows, carving, mouldings, were a joy and recreation after his severer labours. At one point in this excursion he arrived at a Church absolutely devoid of architectural interest. Surveying the fabric with a look which betokened a sense of disappointment, he observed to his companion, "Well, at any rate we can ask to see the Registers." Dr. Benson knew full well that these ancient documents often contain facts no less important and interesting than some external or internal architectural feature of priceless esteem to the antiquary or historian. This Inventory, (the prolonged and exhaustive labours of the Rev. C. E. Woodruff and others) gives us the ends of threads which if interwoven with collateral incidents may some day produce a fabric of high historical value. It is lamentable to think how often local records have disappeared. These slender threads of parochial history, form the warp of local patriotism. The cause of patriotism has of recent years received a very considerable impulse, but it is no new thing, it is inherent in the life history of every nation, but it is a term difficult both of analysis or explanation. We all, of course, recognise how the study of the life of a great man can arouse and stimulate patriotic effort, e.g., Pericles in Athens, Augustine at Rome; in England such characters as Edward the Black Prince, and Sir Thomas More; in America, George Washington and Abraham Lincoln shine like stars in their respective spheres.

Excerpt from Market Harborough Parish Records: To A. D. 1530 The chief object of this volume, and of a second in course of preparation, is to place in the hands of the parishioners of Market Harborough, and of their neighbours in Great and Little Bowden, a full account of the records which have been preserved in the town, and are now in the custody of the Trustees of the Town Estate. Beyond this, it is hoped that what is brought to light in these volumes may be of some little use to the many who are at work on the remains of the past, and who have done so much in recent years to make English people understand the life and manners of their forefathers. The work of deciphering and arranging the town records was begun some years since at the request of the Trustees. For some time those who undertook it had no thought of publication, but the records proved to be more varied and of greater interest than was expected at the outset, and, ultimately, the whole body of the Trustees decided to publish them on their own personal responsibility. This volume has been prepared for the press under constant pressure of other calls and with many hindrances.
