Register Transcripts
The Lancashire Parish Register Society have published- Volume 45 - Mar 1654-1723, Bap & Bur 1653-1723.
Transcripts/indexes in progress
- 1606-1641 trancript held in LPRs archives for which no register now exists, only BTs
1723-1761 are being transcribed
for publication by the
Lancashire Parish Register Society.
Status: Apr 2007 - 1606 to 1641 is BT only, for which no register exists. It is entered and checked. For 1723 to 1762, register entered and collated with BTs completed but needs checking against curate's paper copy.
Work on transcripts and indexes start off with good intentions, but circumstances can arise which mean that the task is larger than first envisaged, or other tasks require the trancribers time. So there is no guarantee that publication will always take place or that initially envisaged target dates will be met.
The work being undertaken is not being done as part of GENUKI, so it will not be available for online research as part of this site. This does not of course preclude it being made available in this way elsewhere. The final publication medium will be determined by the trancriber.
