Excerpt from Parish Registers: A List of Those Printed, or of Which Ms. Copies Exist in Public Collections; Together With References to Extracts Therefrom, Printed and Manuscript

The following references are an amplification of a reply made a few years since to an inquiry of the late editor of the Genealogist,' Mr. Walford D. Selby, as to What Parish Registers had been printed. It is almost needless to say that this list might be much extended, especially were indexes to the ms. Collections of Genealogical Antiquaries remaining in the British Museum and other public libraries to any appreciable extent contributed to it. As it stands it is, I believe, the only attempt which has been made to arrange in alphabetical order a list of Registers and Register Extracts which are readily available for the use of genealogists, and which, in many cases, may save them the trouble of making an original search, or a tedious and expensive journey to some country parish.
