Wales, Parish Births and Baptisms
8 242 549 записей
This collection includes records from Wales. In Wales, children were usually christened (baptized) within a few weeks of birth. Each record contains the transcription of an original parish record. The collection may include the following information: name, date of birth, date of baptism, parish, father’s name, father’s occupation, mother’s name, parents' residence, and place of birth.<br><br>Before the introduction of the civil registration of births, marriages and deaths in 1837 all such events were recorded in the local parish. Parish records generally begin from 1538 after the Church of England mandated the keeping of parish registers in 1537. Baptisms, marriages and burials were all recorded in a single volume until 1774, when the law changed to require a separate marriage register and another one for Banns (or proclamations of an intent to marry). Standardised forms for these registers appeared in 1812. Other religious denominations, with the exception of the Quakers and Jews, often registered these events in their local Church of England parish even after the Toleration Act of 1689 although between 1754 and 1837 it was illegal to marry anywhere other than a Church of England parish.
