Plymstock - Register of births either Dead-borne or Unbaptized 1700-1705

Transcribed by Bev Edmonds

Provided here by kind permission of the Rev. Steve Payne

This Register is among the Parish Registers for Plymstock, situated in the microfiche between Burials to 1747 and Marriages in 1748. The hand writing is scrawly but readable, totally different to that around it, which suggests that it might have been a separate register that was filmed and stuck in between when the Registers were filmed. (In fact, a subsequent check of the actual Parish Registers has revealed that this "Register of Dead-borne" was written on the last two pages of the Parish Register, the vicar/curate having first turned the book upside down.)

Transcriber's Notes :

[1] The name HOOPER is recorded in 1701 so my guess on the first name could be correct.

[2] Rulow WENDELO recorded in 1700

[3] Not sure what the term "was noticed" means, except to say that I think it may mean that the incident recorded had come to the attention of the Curate.
