Good morning,

That is correct Gadget, the Ancestry image is a copy taken from the Parish register (PR) years later.  The original PR no longer exists.
I have searched for baptisms and deaths of offspring and parents using Udall and variants, with no success.

A problem arises with Lewis21 image, where this is a copy made after the interregnum 1649 to 1660.  When all previous parish records held at the church had to be copied into parchment leaved bound books by the cleric, being permagnus usus, of great use.

The Bishop's Transcripts were submitted to the diocesan bishop’s registrar, annually.  In this case 1636.

Good morning,

Happy New Year.

I am having difficulty transcribing the surname of Philip shown on the attached image.

Philip's name is the sixth entry.

Philip ? & Jane Womersley.  Maried Septebr [September] 9th.

Family Search and FindMyPast suggest: Udall.

The parish register transcription on Ancestry suggests: Ball

Help!

Regards,

Janet

hanes teulu: Yes! that is the building at the corner of Station Road opposite the station, and appears to be the building in the newspaper clip.

Little Nell: it is BHG who are carrying out the survey.
